My understanding any new reproduction antique firearms still needs to be registered,

Call the CFP, get transferred to a tech. in Ottawa.
You will get your letter. You will also have registered your previously unregistered antique with the RCMP. A record is kept.

CFC techs don't like being phoned theys days re: antique letters, their preferred communication is via email. Be forwarned even if you phone them they will ask you to do it over email.

Reproduction longarm flintlocks don't need to be registered.

Go to page 2 of the sticky for Links to CFC Antique Regs and you will find the actual regs printed there. Print out a copy and carry it with you in the car. If the gun is american, carry also a copy of Flaydermann's Guide to Antique Firearms since it should establish dates of production in most cases. Between the two of them it should establish that any given antique firearm meets the criteria. The only other issue is guns whose production spanned the turn of the century and while Flaydermann does not give that he does usually give the span of serial numbers and if yours is very low for that gun, it should indicate that it was made very early in the production time span

That sir may very well be the best advice I have ever seen given in response to that question!
I salute you.
