I don't know about you, but I feel safer already!
Pathetic ... they say that these AirSoft toys could be converted to REAL weapons ... are they serious! Or are they just STUPID!
When they said that the toys being shipped did not have the red tip on them ... I can virtually say with almost 100% certainty that THEY, the ATF, removed the red tips in order to set up a “bust”.
What fools ... the problem is they are dangerous fools and anti-American to boot.
Good grief, I have an airsoft pistol to keep the stray cats away. It scares the heeby jeebys out of them, but doesn’t hurt them. It uses a big cheap spring to propel the plastic BB. There is no way in he77 it could be converted to a real gun. To say an airsoft can be converted is about as retarded as you can get.
Yeah and the asshats are armed and wanting to use them.
“...are they serious! Or are they just STUPID!”
I have ZERO respect for any civil service person at local, state or federal level. On several occasions, I have worked with federal CS personnel/bureaucrats. IMHO, these are people who have less work ethic and character than their civilian counterparts. Welfare with a desk.
The store owner in the video said that it occasionally happened that a shipment would arrive without the red tip, and they would just paint it red themselves before putting them up for sale.
Anybody with a red-tipped airsoft who didn't want it red could just as easily paint it black.
As far as being convertable to fire real ammo -- a plastic lower receiver is not going to take the stress if they put a real upper on it (even assuming that you COULD attach a real upper, which I doubt)
