    I'm doing a thing for school where I have to make a change in the community. I am doing it on imitation firearms. I am going to try to make people more aware of what is a toy and what is real. I am also going to try to get the laws changed a bit so we can paint them more freely. (probably wont happen ) The precise law is of the of the aesthetics With the barrel plug.

    Could you be a bit more specific about which laws you're referring to...

    Also, people, can we keep the flaming on this to a minimum. Obviously the poll is being used to gather "research/public opinion" albeit somewhat biased.

    Cheers,

    Nope. Toy blasters should clearly look like toys. There is need for people to be able to have realistic looking blasters in public.

    It's not like it really mattersa nyway because at the end of the day, they both shoot the same thing, just look slightly different to fulfill little kids' fantasies.

    With how Australia is now, I wouldn't trust people to have airsoft guns and what not, let alone dark painted blasters...

    Here's an example, I went to a toystore selling 'predator' type wipeout pistols that shoot .50 cal paintballs. Guess what happened? Some idiots open it up and started to shoot them in the shopping mall... now they can't ship anymore of those in without being 'fined' for it.

    End of the day, one idiot will ruin it for the others, but here in Australia, there are several of them who think it's 'acceptable' to behave like that.

    You live in Victoria.

    The cops shot some kid who was playing with a stick wrapped in duct tape.

    Good luck.

    We have toy guns that looks real, they are called Airsoft / BB guns, but unfortunately they are banned in Australia. If they are legal, I wouldn't be interested in Nerf in the first place. Unless you can assure every public member there won't be idiots running around with imitation guns scaring other people or criminals using imitation guns to rob a bank, then you won't have much luck changing the law. Just spend your time enjoying your Nerf as toys.
