The Suomi M31's available in Canada are replicas of the Finnish Suomi KP/-31 submachine gun from WW2

the suomi need to be welded before you shoot it otherwise the barrel will pop out

I wouldn't call it a replica , most parts are original .

Well that's good to know, i'd imagine everything but the receiver and barrel is original?

I'm pretty surprised that these weren't a big hit! They definitely look kool, I had a chance to handle one at a local gunshow and it is HEAVY! Lol
