But almost all shops here have stopped selling toy guns, they are too violent for kids to play with
So there aren't any toy guns here exept for those "cowboy shotguns" that are 10 cm long and look like "you-know-what"
I just got a box free full of replica ww2 machine gun parts including Browning .30s, Thompsons, MG42s, and MG34s! The best thing you can do is find people, talk with them for a while getting to know them, perhaps one day you can ask for something and they'll be happy to lend you or discount. Always ask people, most are nice and will reduce prices for a needy filmmaker. It works for me.
Yeah, e-mail them and ask if they can help you out. Drive around and look for surplus stores and whatnot. Get to know people and you never know when they might do a big, big favor for you.
Woohoo! I searched all toy stores in town and found a "SWAT police playset" for 4 bucks
It contained a sawed off shotgun, a beretta, a radio, a police badge, handcuffs and a truncheon (nightstick).
Wohoo! The shotgun and the beretta were great, the rest was s*** but hey! The shotgun and beretta were worth 4 bucks so why not get the rest of the cr** for free too?
