Concerns about orange tips.

[Fear Roback]

To be honest, I think I will be leaving all the orange tips on. I see no reason to take off.

Well, because they look bad and because they stand out like a sore thumb in the woods. You can spot somebody's orange tip from across the field, when had it been black, you never would have seen them.

The question to think about is, why would you leave them on? It won't stop a passer-by from calling the cops, it won't stop a cop from shooting you, and it won't stop a judge from convicting you. Plus, your gun will always be in a case or bag unless you're using it on a legal field or dicking around with it inside your house, right? So nobody of significance will ever see the orange tip anyway.

Wait until you play in a game and you are hiding, you think you are completely hidden, then BAM that bright orange tip gives you away. I've had that happen to me countless times. So I painted/taken off all my orange tips. I used to think they should stay on, until people at games said they found me because of them.

I have orange tips on... Two of my replicas, just because I haven't got around to doing something about it. Just don't flash them in public, regardless of orange tip or not.

I'd use a solid orange cap just for transportation incase a soccer mom goes "Does that thing have an orange tip?!?" Then you reply, "Yea, see!" But in reality you actually don't... Mwuhahaha
