Yep. Replicas are on the *prohibited* list. Sorry kiddo.

More ridiculous than TSA agents sexually assaulting women and children in public.
Her mom sounds hysterical.
What’s the big deal? Check the bag with luggage and go.
After agents figured out the gun was a fake,
ROFLMAO! Best line of the article.
A thousand thanks, TSA...I’m feeling safer already. /s
TSA idiots. You have to be mentally handicapped to qualify for this organization of Bozos.
sorry hunny its a modern double action revolver...possibly a model 29 S&W...but it Made My Day...I like it.
the gumment buttwipe should lose their jobs...what is this, England??
I don’t know why evryone is getting on TSA’s case and saying how stupid they are. This is normal behaviour for any level of government.
One of the effects of the Karl Rove gang being in power. Remember that they introduced these laws.
The TSA are a bunch of retards. Also that is not an “old western gun” Looks to be modeled after a N framed Smith and Wesson to me.
Another reminder of why I have not flown anywhere for nearly 3 years. If time or distance do not allow for driving to the desired location, then I don’t go.
Last year my son had to give up a gun shaped belt buckle to the TSA. I had fun with that.
In my extensive travels, I have found that the Norfolk Airport is the place that has far and away the most draconian enforcement of the “Perceived” rules.
THE WORST!
Checked bag protection...
Put what looks like used underwear where it will be the first thing seen upon opening the bag. Coffee, chocolate, and cider make realistic stains.
Probably one of those "bitter clingers". They'll teach that cracker hoplophile who's in charge.
This TSA victim is young, white, and attractive. Can anyone determine the race of the TSAPerson who made the call?
Remedy in two words:
QUIT FLYING!
If enough people would simply refuse to fly, the TSA would be gone.
But where is that tea party? Who’s ripping up the airline ticket, plucking the wings off the airlines, dumping the baggage in the harbor...?
Where has Liberty gone?
Proving once again that TSA really stands for,”Thoroughly Stupid Agency.”
