Where can I get fake guns in NYC?

[slackerinabox]

I'm filming a short film this saturday and need 2 fake guns - I ebayed a few but I still haven't shipped (stupid ebay sellers!)... Any good place to get them in NYC? Real looking handguns are not sold in Toys R Us and I can't find them anywhere around here... These don't need to fire blanks -they just need to look real.. Any ideas?

They aren't actually legal in the city, so you will have a really hard time finding them.....

Maybe get them in NJ?

Do you know of a good store? I'd hate to drive to NJ and not be able to get one... Thanks!

I was thinking about that - are they expensive? Are they easy to come by?

I have a $20 airsoft spring gun that looks pretty realistic (no orange tip even)! I don't remember any east coast chains that would have it (I haven't lived on the east coast for years).

Some Walmarts have cheapo airsoft guns I think.
