Train for tactical situations like a pro.

Tactical strength training has become an essential part of preparing military personnel, first responders, and tactical athletes for the demands of their profession. Strength, endurance, and durability are critical for those who operate in high-stress environments where performance can mean the difference between success and failure. At Samson Equipment, we design and manufacture tactical weight training equipment that supports real-world performance for military bases, law enforcement agencies, fire departments, and training facilities across the country.

Tactical fitness solutions in the strength industry have grown tremendously in recent years. We took time to study the market, listen to coaches, and analyze the needs of military and government training facilities to understand exactly what needed to be built. The result is a lineup of durable, American-made tactical gym equipment engineered to withstand the harshest environments while providing maximum training versatility.

Our Samson brand is built on a strong foundation of providing durable, long-term strength training solutions for our customers. From indoor military weight rooms to outdoor tactical training environments, Samson equipment is designed to perform reliably year after year.

Our team provides professional service throughout the design and purchasing process to ensure you make the best decision for your training facility. We make purchasing easy for our government partners—utilize your GPC, work with your ADS representative, or purchase directly through our GSA contract to procure tactical weight training equipment quickly and efficiently.

Samson Locker

Mobile Shipping Container Gym System

The Samson Locker is a revolutionary solution for mobile tactical training environments. Built from a 20-foot shipping container, this system provides a durable and secure storage solution for racks, benches, barbells, weight plates, and other tactical training equipment. Designed with mobility and efficiency in mind, the Samson Locker allows military units and tactical teams to deploy professional-grade strength training equipment wherever it is needed.

Unlike traditional container gyms that limit rack placement to the container frame itself, the Samson Locker system is engineered to expand beyond the container footprint. This flexibility allows teams to create multiple training stations around the container while still maintaining a central secure storage location for equipment. The container acts as both a storage hub and an operational base for your training environment.

Compared to other container gym systems on the market, the Samson Locker offers significantly higher capacity and versatility. With our rack designs, a single 20-foot container can support up to 24 rack stations, creating a highly efficient tactical training setup capable of supporting large groups of athletes or personnel simultaneously.

This system is ideal for military installations, deployment zones, remote training facilities, and first responder training centers where permanent gym structures may not be practical. The rugged design protects equipment from weather, transport damage, and operational wear while ensuring rapid setup and deployment.

In addition to storage and mobility advantages, the Samson Locker system is designed to integrate seamlessly with Samson racks, rigs, and accessories. This creates a cohesive tactical training ecosystem capable of supporting strength training, functional fitness, and mission-specific conditioning programs.

Whether used as a temporary training solution, a portable strength facility for deployed units, or a permanent outdoor tactical gym system, the Samson Locker delivers unmatched durability and performance in the field.
