The SALW’s market is majorly driven by defense modernization and law enforcement modernization programs. Security agencies in developed countries are constantly in the hunt to adopt the latest weapons in order to improve security. Moreover, rising instances of illegal activities in urban areas has also impacted the growth of the SALW’s market positively. Small arms, due to their small size, are suitable for use in urban warfare. Rising terrorist activities is another prominent factor leading to the increasing adoption of SALW’s across various countries. These factors in combination are expected to continue driving the SALW’s market growth during the forecast period.

However, various countries across the world have enforced stringent firearm legislations, which makes it difficult for the common man to own it. For example, according to The Arms Act, 1959 and the Arms Rules 1962 (India), the sale, acquisition, possession, manufacture, import, export, and transport of firearms and ammunition is prohibited unless under a license. This makes it difficult for common people to possess weapons for their safety, thereby limiting the consumer base. This forms one of the major restraints for the SALW’s market growth.

Based on the product types, the market is classified into small arms and light weapons, wherein each of the two is further categorized into sub segments.
