Can you go on a flight with a paintball marker?

I’m going to USA, and I’m thinking about buying a paintball gun. Is it possible to travel back from US to Brazil and bring it on the plane or they won’t let me do it?

i don’t see why not. as long as it is checked and not with your carryon i don’t see why it would be a problem. the co2 might be your biggest problem. they don’t allow that at all.

i just don’t think they will allow anything that looks like a weapon in the carryon, especially since there are now air marshals on every flight. are there paintball fields where you live or do you play unregulated?

Nope, if it looks like a gun and it emits things they classify it as firearm.
