Yeah I am sure they make them out of jello too because that would be the best simulation of a gun.Nope. They make 'em out of plastic, in case terrorists ever bring plastic guns aboard. (No, I am not making this up.) And one guy who tests screeners said that making the dummy gun out of metal would "make it too easy to find."

This is why I approach the topic from the assumption that the badguys will get on armed. If that is preventable (I have yet to see it) it might change my stance.
