The reason we have them at all is the inability or unwillingness of the authorities to have all of our nice guns classified officially as replicas. Some guns might not be, but the vast majority would be. This mood could change at anytime, at the whim of the OIC, and there's little you or I or anyone else is going to do about it. This is why we have lived under a shadow for years, and will continue to do so.

Would my PTWs be cosnidered replicas, perhaps, even likely. The only saving grace is that they are the only electric guns designed and shipped from the manufacturer with the capacity to cause bodily injury and exceeed the 407 fps guideline that the RCMP has used to hammer home the "replica" designation in over a dozen CITT appeals.

I really don't understand why this is so difficult to understand? Are the FAQ's too vague? Are people not reading the thousands of threads on this forum?
