You will be in Maryland.
Don’t have anything, anything that remotely looks like a weapon either on you or in your carry on. Nothing. Not even a picture of a gun. Some kids’ plastic 10” sword from Dizzyland - forget it, not allowed.
This was not carry-on
You will love this story.
Years ago my B-I-L and I were flying to Vegas from Orange County John Wayne Airport.
He had some Cigars in his Carryon, and a Cigar Punch made from “shudder”, a 45 Cartridge. You pulled it apart and the round cutter was on the ass end of the Bullet. It cost about $20 when I bought it for him as a Birthday Gift.
It was a “stop the presses” TSA Moment. They carefully examined the Punch. They took it apart, put it back together, asked us what it was for (I guess TSA Agents don’t smoke Cigars), took it aside to examine it more thoroughly and then the THREE Agents decided that my B-I-L could not take it on the Aircraft.
At that point my B-I-L voluntarily surrendered the obvious Terrorist implement of death and destruction.
$20 down the shitter, but the Aircraft arrived safe and sound in Sin City thanks to the valiant efforts of TSA.
