- Rifles
- Shotguns
- Pistols
- Revolvers, etc.
The cruise line does not even allow pretend guns and it’s very explicit there as well.
- All guns, replicas and ammunition include, but are not limited to, the following items:Guns, operational or replicasAmmunition of all typesBB GunsCompressed Air Guns, including Paint Ball GunsFlare GunsGun LightersGun / Firearms PartsPellet GunsSpear GunsStarter PistolsRealistic Replicas of Firearms
