— -- Who would have thought a pair of statement heels could cause a stir at a TSA checkpoint?

According TSA spokesperson Lisa Farbstein, these gun-shaped platform shoes and bullet-lined bracelets -- spotted by agents at Baltimore International Airport -- are "less than ideal" for air travel.

Federal authorities delayed the woman at the checkpoint after they noticed her accessories.

"Friendly reminder," Farbstein tweeted. "Realistic replica firearms and ammunition are not permitted past TSA checkpoints."
