YEREVAN. – Aspar Arms Company, which has a weapons and ammunition store in Armenia, now wishes to obtain a license to manufacture weapons.

Upon the proposal of the Armenian Police, the matter of granting the company permission to manufacture weapons is included in the agenda of Thursday’s Cabinet meeting.

The respective license will be issued for a period of three years, and to manufacture hunting rifles and their cartridges, and for the artistic design and repair of these weapons.

Hope they get the contract....too bad the strict gun laws imposed on the citizens of Armenia will limit the civilian market.

This is what I know about the gun laws in Armenia but its old....anybody can give a more current info about gun ownership it will be great.

Types of Legal Firearms: Armenia distinguishes between civilian arms, service arms, and combat arms. Civilian arms must exclude the possibility of rapid gun fire, and cartridge capacity must not exceed 10 bullets. State officials and employees of legal persons are permitted to use service arms. Service arms may have the possibility of rapid gunfire, but their cartridges must not have the capacity for more than 10 bullets. Combat arms are used by State Militarized Agencies (e.g., the Ministries of Defence and National Security, the Police Department, the State Courier Service, and the armed units of the Civil Emergency Department). The rules and procedures of the circulation of arms and their bullets by these State Militarized Agencies are defined by a decision of the Government of the Republic of Armenia. (2)

Purposes of Lawful Firearms Ownership: Civilians may own and use arms for the purposes of self-protection, hunting and sport. State officials and employees of legal persons may own and use arms for purposes of self-protection and the fulfillment of tasks envisaged by law such as the protection of the lives of civilians, their health, property, and so forth. State Militarized Agencies may own and use arms for combat-operative tasks. (2)


DOMESTIC FIREARM LEGISLATION (2)

Armenia has recently amended its Law of the Republic of Armenia on Arms (adopted on 03.07.1998, entered into force on 13.09.1998) with the following pieces of legislation:

Decision of the Government of the Republic of Armenia on the “Rules and procedures of the Licensing of the Production of Arms in the Republic of Armenia” (adopted on 05.12.2002, entered into force on 23.07.2003)
Decision of the Government of the Republic of Armenia on “Regulating the Circulation of Service and Civilian Weapons and Their Bullets on the Territory of the Republic of Armenia” (adopted on 26.10.1999, entered into force 26.10.1999)
Order of the Minister of Interior of the Republic of Armenia on “Rules and Procedures of the Control Over Service and Civilian Arms by the Bodies of Internal Affairs” (adopted on 15.03.2002, entered into force on 10.14.2002)
Decree of the President of the Republic of Armenia on Surrender of Arms and Other Military Inventory Illegally Held by Citizens or by Organizations
Licensing Requirements: Article 13 of the Law on Arms defines the rules and procedures for possession of arms by citizens of Armenia. The licence application for possession can be refused if it does not meet the requirements enumerated in the law, such as the age (over 18), appropriate medical conclusions, document of residence, document confirming the knowledge of rules of safety, etc. The licence is valid only for a limited period. (2)

Registration Requirements: Citizens are allowed to own arms on the basis of a licence, which must be registered with the appropriate internal affairs agency within two weeks of acquisition. A licence is simultaneously considered a permit to possess a weapon if it has a specific notification of registration by the internal affairs agencies. The Government keeps accurate records of the numbers of combat, civilian and service arms and weapons. (2)

Armenian Special Forces Weapons

on 3rd and 7th pictures the scopes are "Nightforce" I think with "Zero Stop". One of the best in market with price of just only $1800.00 (excellent deal for us). Add to it an "Accuracy International" or a simple "Sako TRG42 in 338LM", that will bring the price to about$5000.00 to &7000.00 and no turkic or azery fire stick can ever ever come close to them in any parameter.
Hell I could build one with "Remington 40XS in 338 LM or 700PSS in 300winmag" with just Leupold mark4 tactical scope for $2500.00 total cost and beat the turks any time anywhere.
I congratulate our military for making very very wise decisions in obtaining this firearms instead of playing PR cards as "making our own".
Next, very important news that I want to see are few custom reloading shops where our snipers could develop their own accurate loads and practice lot of shooting with reasonable cost savings.
