At Take One Tactical, we specialize in providing professional, film-industry-specific firearms training to actors, stunt performers, and production teams. Our goal is to ensure authenticity, safety, and confidence on set—because every take counts.
Our instructors are seasoned professionals with real-world tactical experience and a deep understanding of cinematic storytelling. We train performers not just in how to handle firearms safely, but how to move, shoot, and act like they’ve done it for years. Whether it’s a SWAT breach, military patrol, or a Western shootout, we tailor our instruction to fit the role, script, and tone of your production.
Our training covers:
- Safe and responsible firearm handling on set
- Tactical movement and posture
- Drawing, reloading, and clearing drills
- Scene-specific choreography with firearms
- Military and law enforcement protocols (for realism)
- Rehearsal and consultation services on-set or off
From first-timers to experienced action stars, Take One Tactical equips talent with the skills and confidence to deliver authentic, compelling performances—safely and convincingly.
Intro to Firearms for Actors
If you aren’t sure what training you’re looking for we can help. Just tell us what you are looking for, your experience, and what you want to achieve and we’ll build something just for you. If you just aren’t sure then we would suggest our basic actors class that cover what to expect on set when it comes to guns being used in a scene, what you should know about safety checks, types of guns, blanks, and what you can do if something feels wrong. You’ll also get to shoot the most common guns used, revolver, Semi auto pistol, shotgun, and rifles. Everything for training will be provided for you, you just show up ready to learn.
