The reason for the orange tip is to show that it's not a "real" firearm. If you were to remove it, then you can expect police officers to react as they would if they saw you pointing an actual firearm at someone.

So, illegal? Maybe not; stupid? Definitely so.

Yes. The orange tip is to signify that it is not a real gun. Removing or hiding it opens you up to legal issues and a posilility of being killed by police.
