Relevant contents

The tiny state of Nauru (population 12,000) has perhaps the most idiosyncratic small arms legislation in the Pacific.

A former Australian-administered British protectorate, its Arms and Opium Prohibition Ordinance (1936-1967) bans 'Natives and Chinamen' from possession of firearms, and clearly has not been updated since independence in 1968.
