When I was a teenager, I saw ads in some magazine for replica pistols. Revolvers, 1911s, all kinds. They were supposed to be incredibly realistic, esxcept for the fact that they didn't fire. I wanted one. Dad said no. He thought it was just too easy to get into trouble with something like that. Looking back on it, he was right. It is too easy to get into trouble with something like that, in exactly the kind of scenario you describe, S_Constitutionist. It would be a terrible tragedy for some kid to get shot because he was out screwing around with an airsoft, pretending for it to be a real gun. Still, when someone whips a gun out, there's not a lot of time to figure out your plan of action. If you spend too much time thinking about whether their gun is real or not, you could wind up the victim.
