    There is nothing in the law that prevents a firearm from being deactivated for display, but the definition of a 'firearm' in the Act is so all-embracing that any deactivation needs to be very thoroughly and irreversibly done. I have done many in the past and certified them as no longer being 'firearms'. This work involves hidden milling and grinding on the barreled action, followed up by extensive hidden welding. All-in-all a lot of work and consequently not cheap.
