I recently added a dummy barrel to the Ferret's turret for looks.
It's a collection of pipes and pvc tubes arranged on a block of wood
that looks quite a bit like an FN-Mag variant unless you really know
what you're looking for and are close up. So far, that was just
before Veteran's day. I've driven it all over Atlanta since then and
not had a single cop bat an eye.
The odd thing is that I had one Police Lt inform me that in his
opinion I "had to get the gun." I suppose if I do get some grief,
I'll just say a local police Lt told me to do it and I complied as
required to when ordered to do something by a cop... ;-P
