Misc Will Henry Homesteader without a stock be considered a errrr... "handgun"?

So apparently, Henry Homesteader with just Nuemann Metalworks adapter and a pistol grip is very much a functional gun, sans butt-stock. It is even of NR length (27+ inches). It only misses a butt stock.

If we keep it in that configuration, will it be legal?

Picture is not mine. It belongs to /u/HappyCan7250

The only issue I see is objection is that argument can be made that since it is missing a butt stock, it has been altered to fire with one hand, ergo it is a handgun and no longer a rifle. Similar to how Taurus Judge Home Defender is considered as a handgun. This is ofcourse hypothetical argument.

Any one has insights in this?

PS: Picture is not mine. I took it from this thread : https://www.reddit.com/r/canadaguns/comments/1v52y56/neumann_metalworks_homesteader_furniture/

If original owner of pic objects, I will remove it.

As long as you don't cut the barrel and OAL (Overall Length) is still 660mm (26"), then you're good.
