Norwegian Initiative on Small Arms Transfers

Welcome to the NISAT web site. Here you will find a wealth of information on small arms issues.

The site is divided into five parts. You can use it to search our database of the international authorised trade in small arms and light wepaons. It contains over one million records.

You can also search and browse our document library, which contains over 17 000 articles on small arms issues.

Due to copyright restrictions, full access to the database and document library are only available with a password. If you would like to ask for access please mail Nicholas Marsh and state your institutional affiliation and interest in the material.

You can also browse publications by NISAT members, and find out more about the NISAT coalition.  

Finally, don't forget to look at our blog, which features updates about what we are doing and observations about small arms research.
