Since you are unable to own a real gun, may I suggest a build using a real but BATFE APPROVED DEACTIVATED Bulldog?
Mine is a shooter, but if I took the Bulldog to a specialist gunsmith it could be deactivated and registered with the Cal. DOJ Firearms System as a deactivated firearm with serial number #####. I have several original movie props that were made out of real, but deactivated, guns.
The rules are a bit stricter where I live in Australia. A deactivated firearm is still treated as a firearm here as are Airsoft guns. I still need to get a licence to have a deactivated gun and have to be registered as a collector I think. I also don't think you are allowed to modify the gun after it has been deactivated as you get a licence for a "deactivated Winchester rifle" not a licence for a "deactivated Winchester rifle turned into a scfi gun". So licences are needed for real guns (if you can prove you NEED a gun licence) also for deactivated ones and one cannot get any sort of licence for Airsoft. The odd thing is in the state I live in I can own full metal replica pistols like a Beretta 92F with no licence or registration required.
