As you probably know, we cannot buy fake guns in CA from any online source, even if that source, like Walmart, sells them in stores elsewhere. In the LA area, stores do not carry toy guns, "especially cap pistols," one employee told me.
While I agree with this policy, it creates a few challenges for a few shows. Namely, our Spring 2020 Production of Chicago. I would like to use a cap gun on stage rather than sound effect if possible. So I thought I would reach out and ask what others may have done in a similar situation... ideas? Thank you in advance.
