You mean AIR PISTOL or an AIR RIFLE/GUN ( both use BB pellets) are illegal there, in Guyana ?
They may be Spring fired or gas fired.
What will happen if I travel there with either or both packed, declared in my checked suitcase ?
Will I be arrested ?
I used a Spring fired air rifle/gun as a 10 y.o. in British Guiana to shoot birds at the rice fields.
A now very famous friend of mine owned it and lent me…when we were kids.
They are sold in hunting/gun stores the US without hindrance and license not needed. Used for shooting rabbits, squirrel, iguanas.
