Article 70. Armouries and their Function

For the purposes and effects of this Act and its Regulation and administrative norms that derive from them, an armoury shall refer to any establishment engaged in the repair or maintenance of firearms for civilian use or reloading of cartridges.

Armouries must have a specific licence in order to operate, which includes the authorisation for the purchase of parts and materials that are required for them to carry out their activities. The licence is granted by the National Police, the [division] Specialised in Controlling Firearms, Explosives and Related Material, which must maintain a record for each existing armoury in the country.
