How do you know he bought them legally? I'd love to see a source, not that I don't believe you, I just would like proof.
And as far as I'm aware he didn't fire any shots until the family was all tied up, it was based on threats and intimidation. He could have likely accomplished the same with a kitchen knife or with an imitation firearm, or a handcrossbow like what you can buy on amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0047WOMI8?pc_redir=1404911244&robot_redir=1
In all likelihood he bought the guns before he was a prohibited person and simply kept them. I'm not sure any gun law could have prevented or delayed this massacre.

So, this is probably your best bet for a pistol crossbow. They are fun if you like projects, I did some hacksaw work on mine and added a red-dot sight. I'm currently working on making some custom bolts for mine, since the bolts sold for it are waaay too light. If you want to save money for your wedding (which I wholeheartedly suggest) then this could be a good route to go. If so, let me know and I'll try to find you a decent (for the price) red-dot if you need help with that.
As for swords, if he does weapon forms in kung-fu then this Dan Dao or Jian could be up his alley.
If he's more into medieval European blades, then [Darksword Armory) is a fantastic place to go. I absolutely vouch by their products and they are fantastic, fantastic people to do business with. They are a little pricier (300 to 450 range), but they are also really, really worth it.
For a variety of user blades on the slightly cheaper side, Cold Steel makes redneck tough swords that you can get for below your price range at the vendor I just linked you to. Let me know if you have any more questions!
>so I don't want to just have unregistered guns that I'm supposed to have registered.
Most states have no gun registration. In most states you can buy a gun private sale with no paper trail at all, no record that you own it. In a few states you can legally concealed carry that gun with no permit, and without the government knowing you even own a gun at all. Move to Arizona or Vermont.
Honestly you'd be better off with a handcrossbow than a BB gun. http://www.amazon.com/80-Lbs-Self-Cocking-Crossbow-Pistol/dp/B0047WOMI8
Pull that out and no one will think you are fucking around, and it can indeed kill them if you have to shoot them with it.
But if you are really set on the BB gun, get one like this, at least it looks like a real gun: http://www.amazon.com/Walther-Compact-Pistol-Black-Medium/dp/B001G7MUH2/ref=sr_1_1?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1346974301&sr=1-1&keywords=walther+bb+gun
It sure as fuck won't kill anyone, and won't stop them if they want to kill you, but it might scare them.
Have fun

You're both amaizng as always! <3
I suppose when you are thinking about acquiring a bow then you have to consider other options as well. As for the options, you must consider all three of the silent weapons which fall into this category and their individual pros and cons.
The great advantage of the crossbow is that it is probably the easiest to use out of all three options. You get a much greater power from smaller versions for a smaller price (e.g. Cobra System Self Cocking Tactical Crossbow Pistol 80-lb. or something similar your price range Arrow Precision Inferno Fury Crossbow Kit (175-Pounds) ). Another advantage of crossbows is their usage of bolts which don't always require fletchings so making your own would probably be easier. Lastly it's their loading mechanic that depending on the model is much easier to accomplish than otherwise compared to their power, also the way you shoot a crossbow is ultimately easier because you can take aim similarly to a gun and it doesn't require you to be in a certain position to pull the trigger. Simplified : Stronger shooting power, less stress on the body, better aiming and easier to make ammunition.
The bow, or a bow kit as you are suggesting, is something that requires a lot of training. Depending on the type of bow (don't quote me on this I am no expert) you need be hold it in the right position to achieve high accuracy and the highest amount of power possible from it. The problem I got with a bow personally is it's inconsistency because the longer you use the bow the more tired you will get and the weaker your shots become. Arrows are harder to make yourself, if you want them to be accurate, because you need to make them with fletchlings, which isn't something I believe you can easily do without training. Another downside for bows is their price, while a good starter bow costs around 150$ (taken from the comments of your suggested bow), there is a lot of room for more expensive ones, which don't all increase in power that much. Simplified : Silent, tiring after repeated use, can't be used when injured, requires a lot of training.
Last option and usually one that is forgotten by many is the slingshot. Why you may ask ? Because I think out of all of them it's the most difficult to master and use. However, if you are looking for a small addition that is able to be used for silent hunting purposes then this is probably your best bet. Out of all options it's the smallest and the most versatile. With just a good band you can make your own homemade slingshot for hunting small game. In addition you can buy extras like the whisper biscuit to allow using it with arrows. Ammunition is plenty as anything that fits the pouch goes. Simplified : Small, efficient, never runs out of ammunition, requires the most amount of training.
In the end it depends on your intended use. Since you gave no examples what you wanted to do with the bow kit you are giving as an example. If you have the time and want to put in the effort than adding a Slingshot with extras will be your best shot. You will have an easy time finding ammunition and when you use it with the whisper biscuit, then even hunting bigger animals will be no problems.
If you are looking for a small efficient weapon for hunting silently then I suggest a small crossbow, like the one I linked, it has enough power to hunt, but it's weak enough so the bolts don't tear right through the animal and instead get stuck inside of it allowing you to easier reacquire them and reuse them and not lose them in the forests.
A bow would be my last choice, you can always make a simplified bow as a last resort using some finishing line or other string, but the training required along with the cost makes it the least desirable option for me.
