The comments abouc OC versus CC are not helpful in this situation at all.

A Reciprocating saw, is almost impossible to wear concealed. They are notorious for printing unless you have a very unusual body shape. The danger of injuring yourself when drawing are significant, especially if you just put it inside your waistband without a holster.

I am from Milwaukee, hometown of the Sawzall. I have seen some terrible accidental discharge reports!

You would also be able to tell if someone carry's a concealed saw by the long extention cord coming out of their coat.

Agree but for those people out there that can't afford the kimber of the saws-all the power cord assisted Hi-Point saws-all is available at a reduced cost.

I've owned several airsoft guns, most of mine were solid black and looked quite real. Myself and some friends used to hold airsoft matches at this plot belonging to a church. basically the church built a mockup of an acnient town with streets and buildings. so that once a year they could hold a live drive-through nativity show. the pastor of said church was a cool guy and lets us play at his church's mockup town. so we'd walk from a parking lot down a residential street to this bethlehem mock-up in full camo carrying slung airsoft rifles that look just like those evil assault weapons and carrying holstered airsoft pistols that looked just like real berettas and sigs. never were bothered by the cops.

still even with orange tips I'd still be cautious. I've heard rumors of gang members putting orange tips on real guns before too, nothing confirmed of course, just rumors. but still, it could happen.

E6chevron, as you are from Milwaukee, hometown of the Sawzall, I am interested in what kind of holsters are available for it. I like kydex, if available.

wonder if the orange tips is a law or just common sence?

not statutory law, but federal regulation on manufacture, import, and sale of toy guns.

CFR 15.1150

A couple of my teenage grandsons have some very realistic airsoft pistols. I don't know if they did it purposely, or not, but the orange tips are missing. I told them I did not think that was a good idea if they had removed the tips on purpose.

BTW: I also OC, and I believe that it is wise to allow those that might consider doing you harm to make an informed decision before they try. I know for a fact it has worked for me that way.

Some married couples should use rubbers. These parents obviously fit that bill.

More stupid people raising stupid kids.

Back in the 1980's some criminals actually painted the tips of their real pistols orange as to make the cops hesitate. I remember reading stories of cops being shot thinking the young gangbanger just had a toy until he got shot by it.

I'd like to see SawzAll come out with a cordless belt fed SawzAll....something smaller or compact.
