Rebuilt for Absolute Control
We fully rebuilt and massively expanded GUN HANDLING. The new library triples the size of the predecessor, offering over 1,700 sounds and a new weapon selection, covering modern and classic firearms. We moved away from live shooting ranges and utilized heavily dampened indoor acoustic spaces to capture the intricate, tactile sounds of weapons with zero environmental reflections.

You own our legacy GUN HANDLING library?
Gunfire is only half the story. The subtle mechanics of a firearm establish the reality of a scene before a single shot is fired. This library provides the vital safety clicks, magazine inserts, bolt pulls, and grip adjustments needed to build authentic tension.
The library comes with UCS naming, streamlined Metadata, consistent six variations per file and with lots of different actions per gun, built for modern production workflows - recorded in a highly controlled, acoustically treated indoor space. You receive the pure mechanical sound of the weapon, with barely any baked-in environmental reflections.
Every file in this collection is acoustically uncolored. This approach guarantees that the sounds will fit seamlessly into any environment you are building. You have the absolute freedom to apply your own convolution reverbs and spatial processing to match your specific scene.
This rebuild triples the size of the original offering. With over 1,700 individual sounds and more than 2GB of high-definition content, the library covers assault rifles, submachine guns, pistols, revolvers, and bolt-action rifles. We captured multiple variations of every action to ensure you never run out of options.
What’s Inside
Comprehensive Weapon Coverage
We sourced an extensive arsenal of firearms to ensure complete coverage for any project. You will find detailed mechanical Foley for modern assault rifles, classic revolvers, tactical submachine guns, and heavy bolt-action rifles. Each weapon was recorded with surgical precision to capture its unique mechanical signature.
Ready for the Mix
The focus of this library is pure utility. The sounds are edited, categorized, and metadata-tagged to keep your workflow fast and efficient. Drop them into a tight close-up shot for immediate ASMR-level detail, or layer them under chaotic battle scenes to ground the action in physical reality.
