Executive Summary

According to the report, the small arms market was valued at $8.4 billion in 2022, and is estimated to reach $14.2 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2023 to 2032 due to growing surge in hunting activities and the modernization of law enforcement agencies.

Small arms are the type of weapons carried out by individuals and handled easily for effective desired operations. Small arms mainly include pistols, rifles, shotguns, machineguns, and revolvers. Small arms find their application across civil & commercial and defense sectors. Government regulations and rules have been imposed by several regulators to control acquisition of small arms across the globe. Rise in demand for small arms for competitive sporting events and growth in number of territorial conflicts across the globe are anticipated to support growth of the small arms market.

The global small arms market is expected to witness significant growth, owing to a rise in cross-border disputes, political unrest, and up gradation of security agencies in various countries. Small arms are crucial sidearm solutions for law enforcement and military officials in tactical missions and related projects. North America is a leader in the small arms market, owing to the changing security outlook and presence of small arms manufacturers across the region. The presence of premier defense equipment manufacturers in North America further increases the contribution of North American countries in the global small arms market. In addition, the civil & commercial segment is witnessing a rise in consumers in the global market and is expected to witness growth throughout the forecast period.

The global small arms market participants are focused on developing their sales footprints by entering into long-term contracts and agreements with military and law enforcement agencies. For instance, In March 2022, Colt’s Manufacturing Co. LLC entered into an agreement with Jordan to co-produce hand small arms such as guns and rifles in the kingdom. This leads to the development of a sustainable and self-sufficient defense industry in the Kingdom by supporting the localization of defense product manufacturing. Further, the integration of smart technologies into firearms presents a significant opportunity for growth. Smart firearms encompass features like biometric locks, electronic safety mechanisms, and integrated electronic aiming systems. These technologies enhance firearm safety, accuracy, and ease of use.

Agreements and contracts with law enforcement and military agencies and product launch activities are the key strategies adopted by the market players. North America is the leading consumer of small arms in the global market, and it is expected to lead market growth. Furthermore, the military and law enforcement sectors in north America and pacific region constitute a significant portion of the small arms market. Armed forces procure small arms to equip their infantry and specialized units. Law enforcement agencies rely on firearms for public safety and crime prevention. These organizations seek firearms that balance performance, reliability, and adaptability to diverse operational environments. Moreover, the civilian market includes individuals who purchase firearms for self-defense, sport shooting, hunting, and collecting. The demand varies on the basis of cultural norms, regulatory frameworks, and individual motivations. Responsible firearm ownership and safety training are emphasized to ensure proper usage and storage.

The small arms market is segmented based on type, action, end-use sector, and region. By type, it is categorized into pistol, shotgun, revolver, and others. Depending on action, it is fragmented into automatic and semi-automatic. Depending on the end-use sector, it is segregated into civil & commercial and defense. Based on region, the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America, Middle East & Africa (LAMEA) including country-level analysis for each region.

North America and Europe are expected to witness considerable CAGRs of 4.5% and 6.5%, respectively, during the forecast period. Growth of the global small arms market is driven by surge in use of small arms solutions for sports events & hunting activities and modernization of law enforcement agencies in developing countries. Changing nature of warfare and growth in defense expenditure are the key factors that support growth of the small arms market.
