        <text><![CDATA[ <p><b>Look-Alike Weapons Safety Act of 2015 </b></p> <p>Amends the Federal Energy Management Improvement Act of 1988 to prohibit manufacturing, entering into commerce, shipping, transporting, or receiving any toy, look-alike, or imitation firearm unless the permanent color of the entire exterior surface is white, bright orange, or another specified predominant bright color. (Currently, imitation firearms are required to have only an orange plug inserted into the barrel.)</p> <p>Revises the definition of &quot;look-alike firearm&quot; to include traditional B-B and pellet-firing air guns that expel a projectile through the force of air pressure. Maintains the exclusion of paint-ball guns.</p> ]]></text>
