I agree. It looks better that way. And i know he was saying to make the tip orange for legal reasons... but the fact is, it doesn't matter is it's airsoft or not, if it looks like a real gun, it must have the orange tip.... airsoft or not.
But this gun is not a replica of a real gun, so i'm not so sure if the orange tip is required. I could be wrong thogh....
You should tell them to wear eye protection if you manage to fit airsoft parts into it. And in doing this you would have to paint at least 1/4" of the muzzle orange, which is required by law for every airsoft gun.
