Just practice good judgement when you are playing airsoft.
I feel comfortable without a orange tip on my gun because we play on a private field where everyone knows who we are and what we are doing. Also, when transporting them they are in gun bags and if I were to get pulled over (and asked if they could search my car) I would inform them before hand that there are pellet guns in my trunk. Although I never would do anything that would give police a reason to search my vehicle.
Police will treat every airsoft gun as if it were a real firearm with and without a orange tip. When my friend and I first started playing airsoft in his back yard we had the cops called on us and they were trying to say that people were painting orange tips on real guns to confuse the police. Whether or not that story is true I'll never know but it's something to keep in mind.
