    Replica Antiques questions

    I'm just curious who the manufacturer of these replicas is. The BS970 Steel in the description suggests it's a British source

    Also, why do different models appear to have the same SKU on your website?
    Will a Baker Rifle show up at some point?

    This is our first order and is a trial. If they are popular, we will make SKUs.

    It's the same Indian manufacturer as everyone else. Yes, the steel was probably imported from the UK or made on license.

    No Baker Rifle on order at this time. Possible for future orders.

    Pay the extra and buy a Pedersoli if you want to shoot the Brown Bess.

    Canadian Ammo states that they are not proofed.

    India tends to use British Standards. I would assume it is made by Tata

    A vague and misleading statement of a one would expect from a banned company.

    What are you on about? CanadaAmmo isn't banned, and TATA is an enormous industrial and commercial concern that does steel work for many. Drinking Liptons tea - TATA. Thinking a LandRover might be your next vehicle - TATA.

    So these are sold as non-working replicas... If they are finished, whats the status?

    I am assuming the long guns are still not-firearms, as flintlocks regardless of age are not firearms as per the FA?
    Meanwhile, the pistols would become a restricted, because repro handguns don't have the same non-firearm status? They have to be real antiques to not be a firearm?

    Am I right on this? I really want a not-restricted black powder single shot, it would be such a riot to take that up to the bush and play with but the restricted status would stop that from happening... Might still have to get one though...

    I think he's trying to say that sounds like the sort of thing Marstar would say. While it is vague, I don't see how its misleading in any way...

    I thought replica firearms were banned in Canada?

    If a flintlock isn't a firearm does that also apply to their replicas?...

    You raise an interesting point...
