Definitely NOT on the person or the Carry On Luggage. I worked for some time teaching TSA Agents on inspecting luggage. And BB Guns are a "Red Flag." If you want to carry one on the aircraft you must notify the Air lines Agent that it is an Air Gun (BB) otherwise it will be confiscated and you may have to answer some questions to the Law Enforcement personal. Pellet guns can not be in "Carry on luggage" they must be in the "Checked Luggage" they can not be loaded, and must have the cylinder removed from the gun. I strongly suggest that you declare it at the Check-in counter. Go to http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/airtravel/prohibited/permitted-prohibited-items.shtm#6 and read the section on "Guns and Firearms."
