Light Weapons Proliferation

Light Weapons Proliferation is the widespread dissemination and uncontrolled accumulation of portable, individually operable firearms and related ammunition across states, non-state actors, or regions, distinguished from broader weapons proliferation by its focus on small arms and light weapons that facilitate asymmetric conflict, internal destabilization, and human security threats.
