OSCE Best Practice Guide on Ammunition Marking, Registration  and Record-Keeping

OSCE Best Practice Guide on Ammunition Marking, Registration and Record-Keeping

This Best Practice Guide applies exclusively to state-owned stockpiles of conventional ammunition for military, paramilitary, security and police forces of a participating state in accordance with section II and III of the OSCE Document on Stockpiles of Conventional Ammunition (FSC.DOC/1/03, dated 19 November 2003). All other ammunition, such as ammunition in private possession or ammunition used for non-conventional weapons like NBC weapons or other CBRN devices, is excluded. It contains information especially useful for those who are working on establishing national policy and procedures. Consequently the information and recommendations provided may be used as a basis for developing policy guidance, general operational guidelines and procedures on all aspects of ammunition marking, registration and record-keeping.
