From Cape Henry Shores Neighborhood Watch:

“I received a couple of emails from concerned residents about kids walking in the neighborhood wearing hoods, goggles, and carrying Airsoft rifles.  For those that don’t know, Airsoft guns look very realistic and shoot tiny plastic “BBs”.  Everyone certainly knows they mean no harm, but it can be intimidating for some residents seeing them walking around the neighborhood.  While it is technically illegal to use Airsoft guns in the neighborhood, it might be wise to have them limited to backyards.  Of course, there is also always a fear that they will come across a police officer who has to quickly decide if the gun is real or a toy.”
