Hearts and Minds

We are a UK company primarily specialising in providing armourer services for the television and film industry; supplying weapons and complete armourer services for full or part production. We can also offer physical special effects services.

The Director, Mike Wild, has over 18 years armourer and physical special effects experience in the film industry. Mike has past experience working on the Isle of Man, having worked on previous Isle of Man Film productions, including ‘The Legend Of The Tamworth Two’.

We have expertise in import and export and are able to source weapons from across the globe of both Section 1 and Section 5 under the Firearms Act 1968 as amended, as well as military hardware. We have established relationships and contacts with manufacturers and suppliers across the globe.

We hold a large stock of weapons in our own UK armoury in Hertfordshire and we are able to make weapons and rubber copies as well as modify weapons to clients’ requirements, either on set or in one of our fully equipped workshops in Hertfordshire.

We take very seriously the responsibility for the safety of the cast and crew and provide detailed Risk Assessments and Health and Safety Assessments.

Please do not hesitate to contact Mike to discuss further.
