All true. However, my point about carrying an Airsoft replica was not to somehow be more legal but to help people be at ease. Maybe that's silly, but you never know how people will respond to seeing a holstered, actual weapon. However, if you could tell them legitimately, "Don't worry, it's just an airsoft, the real one's at home," perhaps that would assuage some fears.KaiserB wrote:You could still cause alarm with a toy gun or airsoft.

Lets look at more hypotheticals:
Using your standards as CHL you intentionally fail to conceal when you move your gun from a holster to the console of your car with anyone present in or near the car in the parking lot before going into a posted location.
You intentionally fail to conceal anytime you wear a shirt that you know is not long enough to fully conceal your firearm.
You intentionally fail to conceal anytime you are camping and put your firearm away for the night in your tent (with others present).
The minutia of undefined instances in the law are endless, the point is the Mitigating and Extenuating circumstances are what determine whether or not someone will be charged under the law.
