Might be legal but if You point it at someone by law it's considered a Actual Firearm.

As usual, more made up laws. NOT TRUE....Lets see you quote a law stating your claim? Little kids would be put in jail left and right for playing army with fake guns. It is not against the law to hold, carry or point a fake gun...period!

I believe you'll find that it's covered from the point of "preception". Just like "sexual harrassment", if the offended party feels it is harrassment, then, it's harrassment. If you point a gun at someone, and they feel threatened because they think it's real, you're in trouble.
A few years ago, my daughter was in a car with other kids. They stopped at a SHOPCO and bought a little BB gun. It looked real enough. But they took it out of the box while driving around town. The next thing they knew, there were more than 20 squad cars zeroed in on them.
OUT OF THE CAR, FACE DOWN ON THE GROUND, AND SPREAD 'EM WIDE!!! My daughter says that with more than twenty guns pointed at them, she was praying that the breeze didn't even move her hair. One wrong move and the cops would have started shooting.
Now, would you like to die because of a fake gun that LOOKS real?????
