I've never actually heard of someone being confronted by police and challenged under the premise of "possession of a prohibited device", specific to legitimate use of airsoft or otherwise, although everyone likes to worry about it. When someone does something stupid and the police get involved, IF they're charged at all it's usually in relation to firearms offences, not possession of a replica handgun.
That being said, they can charge you with all kinds of things, notwithstanding their decision to use laws on prohibition against replicas. So no, Replicas are not the only laws "they" can apply.

What's wrong with that statement? A replica used during the commission of an offence is deemed a firearm for the purposes of enforcement. That's not the same thing as stating it's illegal for someone under 18 to posses an airsoft gun.
