I would like to get a pellet gun soon but I heard that they have to have an orange tip on the end. However, the ones I like don't have this. Is it still legal to get them?

  1. All airsoft do everywhere. Blacken the tip and you've committed a serious crime. Walk down the street with your airgun and see how the police react.


  2. >>Are pellet guns required by law to have orange tips?<<  

    Adult airguns that shoot lead pellets do NOT require an orange tip.

    Airsoft toys that shoot plastic BBs do.

    Later: <added> The question was "pellet" guns. Pellet guns are NOT toys. Toys are required to have orange tips on them adult airguns are not.

  3. Honestly, I don't know about Kentucky, but common sense should be  universal; the orange tips let police know that it's not a real gun and thereby not a threat to their lives should they stop you or see you carrying it.  

  4. well since you said pellet gun you dont need the orange tip because I have two pellet guns and they didnt come with orange tips and I'm not required to get them.
