Best Answer

There are replicas- a non-working model of a real firearm- and there are replicas- reproductions of older guns, which work. The non-working model will not be able to load real ammunition, will have a blocked barrel, may be made of some metal other than steel, etc. For the reproductions, it is important to know the characteristics and the markings of an original to distinguish it from a modern reproduction.
