    Surprised the media didn't call it an AR-47 assault pistol

      Smart. Common sense and planning can prevent many problems.

        Never a bad idea to wrap some bright red $2.00 electrical tape around the muzzle of an airgun IMHO.

              i doubt that would change how an officer would perceive the toy gun.

              cause what is to stop a gangbanger from wrapping their real pistol with that bright red tape too?

                There are people that call 911 knowing full well that the "man with a gun" they're calling about is a kid with an airsoft gun, hoping that the police show up and "teach these kids a lesson."

                  a little over 10 years ago I was airsofting in a public school in Torrance. Police of course had been called multiple times but interestingly so on the first couple responses the Torrance Police Department just gave us the quick spiel about being safe. It was the young officers trying to be super cool. but it ended quickly and we were no longer allowed to. No guns were ever drawn on us or anything.

                    Some body cams are activated by in car triggers.. i.e. siren, lights, mic. Some are manually operated. Taser Corp is popular but there are others.. Up to the departments to decide.

                    All to often though they malfunction or a trigger malfunctions.. Or the body cam falls off or moves and tilts down if the officer is running... When alot of items are malfunctioning it can take awhile to fix depending on manpower, budgets etc..

                    Very common.

                    And yes, in car video, audio and body cam video will ALWAYS be immediately requested by the department immediately after a high profile incident.

                        Sure was. She removed the orange tip to justify her actions to IA.
