I always thought the term for a reproduction of any sort was a "Repop"

The term Repo for the reproduction Parker has always (at least as far as I know) been linked to them. I have heard them called Repo's in more than one upscale gun emporium.

I've owned several and they are good guns for the money, I have never seen one with sideplates however.
