thanks that ' s pretty handy ! <| sep |> What happened at pizzagate ? <| sep |> If you ' re out brandishing an airsoft gun on public property or even your own property if you live in a more sketchy area the police will react to the situation as if you have a real firearm . They will more than likely confront you aggressively with weapons drawn . Now , you shouldn ' t ever run around in public with your replica , but if for some dumb reason you do and have the police called on you , just throw the gun to the ground immediately and treat it as if it ' s a real firearm , because that ' s how it ' ll be perceived . Moral of the story treat your replica with respect with the understanding that more or less anyone that sees it in public will perceive it as a real firearm . Trabsport them in a bag when driving tofrom events and never brandish them in public . The only time your replicas should be outside of your house is backyard plinking and for events . Just be smart
