Any legal issue to use a "Blue Gun" in back yard

there shouldnt be any issues.
That being said, if you're that worried, maybe talk to the neighbors that can potentially see you training before you actually start.
In the end, its a piece of plastic... if anyone gives you grief, well ignore them. If they call the cops, and they show up, you have nothing to get worried about. If the same neighbor complains again, start a harassment complaint against them.
Nothing illegal, but you're gonna deal with perception if anything 'happens'.
Don't forget that you're not 'disturbing the public' as you're doing what you're doing on your [private] property.

You're about to find out if your neighbors are Liberal voters. If they are, they'll get scared and phone 911.
those are just being relabeled as "hand held glue distribution device".
My mistake, you are correct
a couple of years ago that would have been funny, and obviously a joke, but nowadays... it's sad actually.
Same thing as the 'popeye cigarette sticks', lucky luke smoking, etc.
I'm glad I'll be dead in 50 years, because society will surely be in a gawd awful place (under water too! lol)
Back to the blue tactical training device thing...

Huh, I never thought about that. The extra incentive of being shot would certainly speed your training

just don't run around the front yard with it your backyard should be okay remember cop say that airsoft guns and pellet guns are guns even when they are with the bright bright bright super bright neon orange Barrel tip which has all over it not a real gun
Why can’t he run around with it in his front yard?
Just remember the OP asked if there was any legal issue.

Notice how i mentiones BB and airsoft guns are being called real, someone might mistake it for real and call the cops, and we might see a member on the news
Hm....In winnipeg there could be issues with a solid piece of plastic in your back yard? Sounds like it could be some bad bug. Hope it's contained within the province.
On the other hand, if you are worried about your neighbours doing bs call your local police and tell them what you going to be doing. I know it sounds like an overkill and encroachment on your rights but when 911 gets a call about a neighbour with a gun they dont know what kind of a gun that is. And if you have restricteds registered to your address than it just makes the complaint that more plausible (not all calls to 911 are legit, cough-cough)..
I noticed.
Here is the Criminal Code definition of a firearm - means a barrelled weapon from which any shot, bullet or projectile can be discharged and that is capable of causing serious bodily injury or death to a person, and includes any frame or receiver of such a barrelled weapon and anything that can be adapted for use as a firearm.
Someone can call the cops for any reason they like. But it does not appear to be a legal issue as far as the definition of a firearm is considered.

I believe there are laws against "replica's of firearms" unless they are replicas of antiques. Not sure if it's applicable here but that 1911 certainly wouldn't be an antique replica.

Make sure all your gun stuff is stored properly and then take the blue gun out and see what happens
I know it's perfectly legal, but do you want the "lay charges, let the courts figure it out" guys at your house? Too many horror stories of charges laid for legally stored collections.... practice in the house? (just stay away from the china cabinet ) or go paintballing like said above.
) or go paintballing like said above.
Really guys? A green plastic gun in the backyard is going to cause trouble in your neighbourhoods? Wow, I thought I lived in the nanny-state capital of Canada...guess I’ve got it pretty good after all compared to some of you.
