Hands
On are Registered Firearms Dealers who work
exclusively with
the film, television and entertainment industry.
As well as hiring the props themselves, they offer
a comprehensive risk assessment service and their
Armourers are available to ensure safety, historical
accuracy, technical precision and legal compliance.
Hands On always recommend (and occasionally
insist) that productions seeking to use weapons
in fight sequences, employ a suitably qualified
fight director or stunt co-ordinator to guarantee
realism and safety during combat action.
They are BBC
approved contractors in
Scotland
and have the Authority of the Scottish Executive
to supply prohibited weapons under section 5 of
the firearms act.
They are the largest
suppliers of arms in this country and following
their purchase of the Edinburgh based Arvalon
Armoury recently, have 1000s of extra items for
hire...their stock covers just about every eventuality.
So give them a call if your next production calls
for any of the following:
Armour,
chain mail, helmets, swords, shields, grenades,
maces, axes, spears, batons, knives, bayonets,
pistols, targes, muskets, machine guns, rifles,
shotguns, RPGs, slings, catapults, cross bows,
halberds, riot gear, hand-cuffs, polearms, long
bows, Saturday night specials, razors, blow pipes,
mines, tridents & nets, flare pistols, garrottes,
boomerangs, arrows, red hot pokers, lead pipes,
candle sticks, rope, revolvers, daggers, spanners,
heraldry and flags.
