"The continued increase in the number of firearms that travelers bring to airport checkpoints is deeply troubling," TSA Administrator David Pekoske said in a statement Wednesday.

美国运输安全管理局局长大卫·佩考斯克在周三的一份声明中说:“在机场查出的旅客携带枪支的持续增加令人深感不安。”

He points out that it isn't illegal to bring firearms to the airport, but that there are well-established rules people need to follow when traveling with guns.

他指出,携带枪支到机场并不违法,但人们在携带枪支旅行时需要遵守一些既定的规则。

"There is a proper way to travel safely with a firearm. First and foremost, it should be unloaded," Pekoske said.

“有一种安全携带枪支的正确方法。最重要的是,它不应该装弹,”佩考斯克说道。

"Then it should be packed in a hard-sided locked case, taken to the airline check-in counter to be declared, and checked."

“然后把它装进一个坚固的上锁的箱子里,拿到航空公司的登记柜台去申报,并进行检查。”

Nationwide, TSA says it caught firearms at 278 airports.
