Also, about the orange tips, there is no law stating that they must have them in Canada, they're given that because they're all made in America.wrong BUT, many police officers think there's a law. I personally have asked 3 different officers of the Peel Regional Police, and 2 have stated that it's not illegal to have a gun without the tip, albeit a bad idea. The other one stated that it's most definitely a crime to not have the orange tip.1 out of 3 =/= many, cops don't know every law

Truth is, airsoft is still really fuzzy when it comes to Canadian laws, because of how much they look like firearms.nothing fuzzy about our laws for airsoft they are very clear on what they are and are not
