Sandra,
If you go and see your local gun shop you should be able to pick up a suitable gun for well under $50-00. They have them handed in regularly from estates etc. Often these guns are unsuitable for firing live ammo as they may have a cracked stock, loose action, pitting of the barrel etc. They are however, often fine for our purposes; firing blanks. Often the gun shops are pleased to get rid of them for a few dollars otherwise they have to take them to the Police to get them destroyed. If your gun shop does not have one when you call they will usually look out for one for you or you could try another shop.
Good luck
Trevor
