TV Cops
1. Bronze - An introduction to weapons handling and safety on set. Using blank firing and high velocity weapons on a military 25m firearms range, actors are taught to shoot to a level of a UK Police firearms officer in both the Glock 17 handgun and the G36C Carbine in both uniform and CID scenarios. The best way for an actor to display a high level of safety and authenticity on set is to actually be taught the principles of shooting.
