Are children's toy guns allowed on a British Airways flight as carry-on?
score:21
The British Airways page on liquids, banned and restricted items has a link to a PDF document detailing the items which cannot be carried as cabin luggage. This document mentions toy guns as being forbidden in carry-on luggage (emhpasis mine):
PASSENGERS AND CABIN BAGGAGE
Without prejudice to applicable safety rules, passengers are not permitted to carry the following articles into security restricted areas or on board an aircraft, on either their person or in cabin baggage:
guns, firearms and other devices that discharge projectiles – devices capable, or appearing capable, of being used to cause serious injury by discharging a projectile, including:
- firearms of all types, such as pistols, revolvers, rifles, shotguns
- toy guns, replicas and imitation firearms capable of being mistaken for real weapons
It would therefore be safe to assume that since both nerf and water gun can be classified as toy guns, neither will be permitted as cabin luggage on board a British Airways flight.
To be extra sure you can contact British Airways and ask them directly.

Within the EU, you can bring the water gun, but not the nerf gun in your cabin luggage.
The relevant EU regulation ban 'devices that discharge projectiles', which should cover the nerf gun. The water gun is ok as long as it is obviously a toy gun and is not 'appearing capable, of being used to cause serious injury by discharging a projectile'.
Categories of items banned in cabin luggage are listed in annex part B of Commission Regulation (EC) No 272/2009. You can also find a list of items considered to be covered by the banned categories here.
