The stick of deodorant was flagged by agents when it triggered an alarm at the airport's x-ray machine.
"It was a creative attempt to subvert security, but of course an X-ray machine can detect bullets! The item triggered an alarm, alerting the officers to take a closer look at what could have caused the alarm," said the TSA in a press release.
Bullets are not permitted to be carried through a security checkpoint.
