I didn't see this posted anywhere else and I just ran across it myself (nothing on the search feature).
From what I'm reading they introduced legislation last year that would require a big orange stripe needs to be on the side of the barrel as well as a big orange tip the same color as the barrel. It would allow for confiscation if your "toy" gun didn't meet these requirements. It applies to air soft, paintball, etc. and I may not be getting this all right so here's a link to the facebook page and that page has a link to their main page with details on the bill. It went to committee just the other day.
I know this isn't effectively a "gun" thing, but many of us use these types of replicas for practice in a safe manner and I'm sure a lot of you own something that you spent money on that you would prefer not to lose or have to buy all new equipment.
