If you are unsure what firearms, gear, or equipment are right for you, our staff can help! We strive to give you the most realistic and period correct props. Whether your project is based in the past, present, or future, ISS has the resources available to advise you on scripts or introduce you to one of our many industry partners capable of providing technical advisory. 

We employ some of the most qualified staff in the industry. Regardless of whether you are filming domestically or abroad, we possess all of the proper licensees at the federal, state, and local levels. When it comes to safety and reliability, we pride ourselves in setting the highest standards. With collective centuries of experience between our personnel, we have the tools and knowledge to get the job done professionally, reliably, and, above all else, safely.

We offer in-house training in weapons familiarization and blank gun fire. This can be immensely beneficial for the cast & crew members tasked with handling firearms in your production, and will help to stress both safety and proficiency. If you require something even more in-depth & intense, we are fully capable of coordinating practical range days with live fire guns. We can also work with your Stunt Coordinator, Technical Advisers, studio safety personnel, California State Fire Marshal, contract services, or your local representation on further education in this very specialized field. For government, law enforcement, and private companies contracting in the area, we offer opposing forces weapons, gear, and foreign weapons classes. If you are an agency looking to upgrade, we can offer great deals on trades or the sale of new equipment, as well as demonstrations on equipment you are considering purchasing for your department. We are also an Independent Training Organization for UTM (Ultimate Training Munitions) and have specialized training guns and personal protective equipment for a more realistic approach. We offer marker and blank ammunition for UTM.

High Desert Theatrical Blanks is one of our sister companies that specializes in blank ammunition. In our new, state-of-the-art facility just outside of Los Angeles, we are capable of filling just about any request. By regulating and producing these parts and pieces internally, we are able to maintain optimal quality and reliability, setting (and then exceeding) industry standards.  If you need custom blanks, wads, or special powder, we can research and develop your request within hours and determine what is safe, as well as what will work best to help you execute your vision.
