I noticed that immigrants in USA can't buy guns or keep them. Is there any possible way to keep a gun at houses for foreigners? Even something close to a gun?

If you are a legal immigrant (permanent resident), you can legally apply for a gun permit. The procedure is the same as it is for citizens.
Call your local police station where you live. They will give you the forms to fill out.

Legal immigrants can buy a gun. In every State, subject to the same laws regarding purchase as citizens.

If you are a legal immigrant as permanent resident -not with a student visa or temporary residency- you can apply depending on your state laws. You'll go through background check and if allowed in your state you can get one.
What I don't understand is why people got so upset with your question and assumed you are here illegaly, I didn't find that information in your question....

No way is it possible to have a gun unless it is purchased illegally which even Americans do.....but I guess you could purchase a BB gun. They have the models which you pump up to desired strength and velocity.

If you want a gun, better live someplace else !
Thank God you are foreign and have another place to goto !
Forget guns, it's bad bad news !
90% of gun wounds are self inflicted or inflicted by the owner's gun !
Might as well just do it yourself, forget guns !
If you need a gun in USA, forget USA
Move to Cuba if you can !

I have heard that at least in some states legal permanent residents can own them so long as they are in accordance with our laws (storage or whatever.) However, these are state laws, and your state may vary.

No, sorry, there is not. This is just one rule an immigrant must follow.
