Nintendo had to change them to orange to make them look less like real guns. Personally, I didn't think it was necessary.

Some try to say that they are, but they made grey Zappers from '85/'86-'89 and orange ones from around '89-'91 neither are rare as they were made in the dozens of millions, just that most people prefer the iconic grey one to the traffic cone orange follow up.

It's insane that prices rise just because people would prefer to have a grey one and not of how rare it actually was.
