Could this stop you from boarding a plane? Yup!
A pendant in the shape of an antique Colt 45 pistol almost landed Marnina Norys in jail. The 39-year-old Toronto resident was caught by alert Kelowna Airport (British Columbia, Canada) security wearing the 1.75-inch sterling silver pendant on a chain around her neck.  
“How do you know it wasn‘t a real gun?” asked Guy, a security agent with the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority, who also declined to provide his last name. “Who knows if there is a gun that small that can shoot bullets? You don‘t know that.”
