Back when I was shooting a 500mm Nikon with the cameo covering, I had an encounter with a police officer. I was in a my car on a dirt road by a marshy area. I had the lens pointed out the car window.
I saw in my side mirror a police car pull up behind me. The officer got out , hand on gun in the holster. With great caution, he approached my side of the card. Not sure what he thought I had ( Maybe a bazooka ) , but I had to show him it was a lens with a camera attached.
So, yes , they can think it is some type of weapon I guess.
