We rent two general types of firearms; NON-FIRING REPLICAS and BLANK FIRING.
NON-FIRING REPLICAS
Our NON-FIRING REPLICAS come from many sources. The bulk of our rifles are created specifically for law enforcement and military training. Many of our hand guns are cast by us in semi-rigid polyurethane plastic (AKA - rubber) while others are either purchased replicas or blank firing guns which have been deactivated.
Holsters are available for many pieces and, except for western holsters, are provided free of charge with each rented hand gun. In all instances these firearms should be treated as if they were loaded “live-firing” weapons. For more information on handling replica firearms please visit our weapon care page.

FRONT FIRING BLANK GUNS
These blank firing handguns vent their hot gases (and flame) out of the front of the barrel just like an actual projectile firing weapon which makes them ideal for use on film where every detail is caught. This mode of operation presents unique challenges for use on the stage and should only be undertaken under the supervision of an expert firearms handler.
WE DO NOT RECOMMEND THESE FOR STAGE USE.
