Don't quote me on this, but there was a robbery a number of years ago where the robber had painted the tip of his real gun orange to give him the drop on law enforcement. I'll look for it now.

I highly doubt it happened. (Even though I wish it did) Had it happen the Americans media would've started the frenzy panic of oh noes toys guns is actually a real gun etc.
Honestly, if you paint a clear reciever it is production of prohibited device just fyi. Basically you can get charge with it.
