I'm preparing to shoot two short films in the next 8 months, and I'll be using (ideally) a couple of types of replica / prop weapons. The first short would be a crime thriller, and would only require some small hand guns, however, the second film would require more military style SMGs, Handguns and Assault Rifles.
Now, I am aware that in the UK, you require licences, as well as Police and City Council permission, as well as Police Officer observation (if you're an amateur) to film with these types of props. However, I am unaware of the cost of licensing, or the proper procedure to go through in order to obtain one.
Any help or insight would be greatly appreciate.
