For the passed decade and maybe even more there has been a sharp increase in piracy worldwide but especially in the Gulf of Aden, Somali Basin and the Indian Ocean.  Ships and vessels have been attacked by professional pirates who’s missions vary from just stealing cargo to stealing whole ships and kidnapping the crew for ransom.  These piracy actions have cost companies millions of dollars in damages effecting their business activities and reputation to deliver their goods on time in the international market.  In those areas the pirates thrive and it is the job of marsec (maritime security) companies to stop this from taking place.  Marsec companies are equipped usually with surplus firearms such as Galil or AK47 assault rifles, shotguns and handguns.  Sometimes marsec units are also armed with long range sniper rifles and anti-tank shoulder fired missiles that can take our pirate ships before becoming a short range threat.  Marsec units are manned by former military soldiers from all over the world who are experience in firing weapons, working as a team, and doing whatever it takes to make the vessel safe at almost any cost.  The regulations that Maritime security companies need to abide by state that since the firearms and ammunition that the team carries is not registered by any country, before the ship docks, all firearms and ammunition needs to be dumped overboard and video must be taken of this clearly displaying the serial numbers of every weapon thrown overboard.  For this reason many marsec companies prefer not to purchase newly manufactured weapons rather military surplus firearms that are cheaper by at least a third of a new firearms depending on condition.

Besides weapons we can provide protective gear such as bullet proof vests, helmets, scopes, night vision, weapon accessories, uniforms and specialty clothing for special conditions, personnel first aid kits and more.  These products are usually newly  

Maritime security companies are a niche in the field of private security companies and private military companies who operate worldwide.  In recent decades these companies have made billions of dollars in contracts as some countries preferred to outsource security and military operations rather than mobilize their own national military forces for many diplomatic, political and financial reasons.  In Iraq, Afghanistan, many African and South American countries, PSC (Private security companies) and PMC (private military companies) are taking the role and the risk of fulfilling missions once done by national militaries and police forces.  The PMC’s and PSC’s are made up of ex-military personnel, highly trained and well paid, usually equipped with the best weapons and equipment money can buy including armored vehicles, helicopters, UAV’s and more.
