Introduction
Over the past eight years, we regularly get asked to host industry VIPs as they come and explore Bulgaria as a potential training and pre-deployment location and we have several options for training partnerships. We are open for training & sales partnerships so please review the information below and come and visit us!
Our civilian training wing (PrepYou.Eu) is well established and a well-regarded provider of high-value tactical and medical training for “concerned citizens” and Hollywood movie stars alike whilst Juliet7.Com provides vocational training for security industry professionals and has a growing number of training providers covering all topics from counter surveillance, Tactical UAV (Drone), Anti-poaching and almost everything else in between with training location from Ukraine to South Africa.
These visits can be extremely useful for really understanding the many opportunities that exist for training partnerships with us in Bulgaria (and beyond) and can be tailored to the client/TPs requirments.
Live Fire Training Facilities
Located just 15 mins from Sofia city centre, our six-bay range complex is set in a stunning mountain location surrounded by forest. We shoot to distances up to 150m with both static and moving targets from under-cover and bench rest shooting positions.
Dynamic & Team based shooting is possible under proper supervision by a certified Firearms Instructors (Bulgarian/EU qualified) or with the additional supervision of our highly-experienced in-house Range Safety Officers (RSOs).
We work 7 days a week, 365 days a year regardless of the weather conditions.
Nigh-Shooting is available in winter months by request.
Live Weapon Systems
The PrepYou.Eu Armoury is one of the most advanced and largest of any training provider in the region. We have invested heavily in our weapons and maintain them to the very highest standard. Although we prefer the iconic and advanced Bulgarian-made Kalashnikov we have a variety of calibres and variants as well as other familiar carbines such as AR-15 and more in stock. Of course, we have a full and modern optics package for our weapons including red dots, reflex and magnifiers suitable for battle rifles.Â
We also have small-frame carbines and Submachine guns, magazine-fed tactical shotguns and a wide variety of 9mm pistols favouring the latest generation Glock and Sig Sauer service pistols.
We have all weapons ancillaries in stock from shooter/war belts, slings, holsters, chest rigs, ballistic plates and helmets so can in fact equip and arm multiple teams for their training requirements.
All safety equipment is available with the majority being from market leader 3M.

The PrepYou.Eu & Juliet7 Training Teams is made up of currently active, former NATO military professionals from multiple nationalities which include Bulgarian, British and Australian to name but a few. We are lucky to have such a wide range of skill-sets and experience which make our Instructors the best in the industry in Eastern Europe.
Priding ourselves on zero-ego, data-driven training we have delivered high-level firearms training to over 8,500 civilian students to date.
