Revision as of 22:22, 10 May 2024
List of firearms used by Salvadoran Armed Forces (Complete... For Now)
Overview
Throughout its history, the Salvadoran army used a large number of weapons in an eclectic attempt to improve its external and internal defense capabilities, the army and police were in a semi-deplorable state, it was after the Salvadoran civil war, the army and police were equipped with new weaponry, but due to the corruption of past governments in the 2000s, this was either directly or indirectly sabotaged (the violent gangs did not help either), it was not until the 2019 presidential elections that the army and police received a much needed (and ongoing) re-armament, re-equipment and re-organization.
DISCLAIMER: This article is meant to be a comprehensive list and suppementary information regarding Fireams in service by the Armed forces of El Salvador as well as firearms that have been since phased out of service, NOT an Additional List of firearms page, as per IMFDB Rules, Standars and Principles, forbades to do so (check this page for more infomation). Copy-pasting this list is STRICTLY PROHIBITED, if you see this page with this exact format on any other site that is not IMFDB, report it to me or contact any IMFDB Admins ASAP, What you can, however, is link and use this page as reference and give credit as it is due, do NOT ask me to create an official page for a List of firearms used by the Salvadoran Army, we have MORE than enough of those on the internet.
PERIOD. NO. EXEPTIONS.
