Marking Regulations
Firearms present in Ireland would be marked on manufacture outside the State. However, some older firearms may not be marked, in which case An Garda Siochana (National Police) is responsible for marking these.
All SALW held by the Defence Forces are marked in accordance with the OSCE Handbook of Best Practices. The Defence Forces marks its own SALW.
[SALW = Small Arms and Light Weapons]
