Depending in what state you live in, the clause may not even be valid.
Some state specifically prohibit landlords from imposing restriction of this type.
In any case you are entitled to quite and peaceable possession of the premises.
Depending on the EXACT wording of the clause it may not actually apply.
Some state that 'illegal weapons' are not allowed.

I have no doubt that there are some states that forbid such clauses, but don't assume yours is one of them. Last I checked, my state
did allow such restrictions, and we're pretty pro-gun up here. As such, I've run into few rentals that bothered to try including such a restriction (it puts them at a competitive disadvantage) but they're out there. Yes, some actually try to restrict possession of perfectly legal firearms.
EDIT: Basically this is one of those areas where firearm rights and property rights intersect, and in general you can expect firearms rights to lose.
