GUNS IN MOVIES;
Perhaps there is some misunderstanding as to how we operate with the motion picture industry in general....
The first production we were involved with was Full Metal Jacket which was filmed in the UK.
We have over the years had our guns in numerous television and motion picture productions.
Legends of the Fall, Saving Private Ryan, Pearl Harbor, Death Race, Mummies 111,The X Files, The last Terminator movie, just to name a few....
However Marstar does not deal directly with the producers, rather we sell the weaponry to the rental companies who, in turn,will provide the handlers and technicians responsible for the training and and safety on set.
We deal with a company in Vancouver that covers most of the Western productions in Canada, two companies in Toronto do the same, we also supply large numbers of weapons to a company in Quebec who handles the majority of productions being shot in Montreal and other areas of the province.
We have been able to develop an excellent reputation with the industry here in Canada as well as several other countries over the years. They know Marstar can supply almost anything they may need in the way of conventional and maybe the exotic as well.... And most times on very short notice.
It is a very interesting side of our company not that well known by the public.
Thank you for your questions,
John
