Course Testimonials

A very good well structured & instructed course covering a mulitude of weapon systems. Marks (Nobbys) knowledge on these and many other weapon systems if fantastic, Over 30 years of experience and it shows ! I would recommend this course to anyone who is already in the industry and dosen´t want to get left on the shelf or any newbies ,value for your hard earned money !

A very good training day with ample instruction and excellent presentation. Mark's instruction was very indepth on many different weapon systems showing his subject knowledge.Booking and receiving Joining instructions was very simple and prompt. An enjoyable day with good value.

From my initial review of the company web site and subsequent enquiries via e-mail to receiving the certificate a couple of days after completion of the one day course, STS showed an extremely professional approach to business and the instructors conduct of the course on the day was excellent. The instructors initial introduction certainly proved his credentials and these were very ably demonstrated throughout the day, there was no BS, no flannel and no waste of time making this course good value for money. There was a wide range of weapons available to handle and fire, all of which are currently in use in the Maritime Security industry and the weapon handling drills taught were such that they would work on any of these with minimul adaptation. By far the main driver during training is safety. Students are therefore given as much time (within reason) as they need, in order to familiarise themselves with the various weapon systems used before pass or fail tests are taken and the basic and scenario shoots on the range are applicable and clear. The only minus point on this course is the lack of full bore shooting but this is amply made up for with the amount of smaller calibre rounds available. A very compitent and well run course, the instructor certainly ensures that the successful student is thoroughly practiced and proficient and able to confidently deploy.

Very useful and thorough. Anybody who attends this course will not be disappointed.

Was good to learn about the weapons u will use well working in the industry and also to fire them as well was very good and u not going on transit not knowing how to use them and mark knows his stuff so enjoyed the course very much

I attended the Maritime firearms comp course in october 2011 at the tunnel, dorset. The location its self was being used by the british shooting team so give you a good idea of the standard of the facility. The course is run by ex SF and was well presented. not sure if it was good value for money as it was nearly £500 for one day.

An excellent course with plenty of instruction on weapons utilised within the maritime security industry. excellent instruction provided by Nobby obvioisly showing his vast experience. Highly recommended course

When I needed to review the course syllabus for up to date knowledge and complete package I was more than happy with this
