I saw a gun in the airsoft gun aisle at a Sports Authority store. How come it didn't have an orange tip?

Asked by Drewseph (533points) October 16th, 2010 from iPhone

Or was it not really an airsoft gun???

It was probably a regular pellet or BB gun, which are not required to have orange tips.

Look at the barrel opening. Was it 4.5 mm (0.177”) or 6mm (.25”)?
The larger diameters are supposed to have the orange tip. You can buy them without the orange in Japan.
