Automatic weapons, which include semi-automatic and fully automatic firearms, are a type of self-loading weapon. An automatic firearm fires rounds indefinitely as long as the trigger is depressed and ammunition is present in the magazine. A semi-automatic firearm, on the other hand, fires one round with each trigger pull. Anti-aircraft machine guns, for example, have extremely high rates of fire to maximize the likelihood of a hit. These guns are also mounted on fast-attacking vehicles like tanks and other combat vehicles. Different governments are investing heavily in the acquisition of automatic weapons to act efficiently during warfare.

By End-Use

The automatic weapons market has been divided into four segments based on end-use: land, naval, airborne, and handheld & stationary. During the forecast period, the land segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR. The increasing focus on close combat systems, upgradation of existing armored platforms, the need for connected warfare systems, and safety of soldiers in war-like situations, among other factors, can be attributed to the rising demand for automatic weapons.

By Type

The use of automatic weapons in defense has grown significantly in recent years, owing primarily to the increased production of warfare platforms around the world. These warfare platforms necessitate weapon systems that can be operated semi-automatically or fully automatically.

By Product

The automatic rifle segment leads the automatic weapons market in terms of product. Automatic rifles fire continuously until the last round is fired, whereas self-loading or semi-automatic rifles require the shooter to press the trigger after each shot. Self-loading rifles outperform automatic rifles in terms of accuracy. Given its large production and demand in Europe and the United States, the automatic rifles segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global automatic weapons market.

An accurate research report requires proper strategizing as well as implementation. There are multiple factors involved in the completion of good and accurate research report and selecting the best methodology to compete the research is the toughest part. Since the research reports we provide play a crucial role in any company’s decision-making process, therefore we at SNS Insider always believe that we should choose the best method which gives us results closer to reality. This allows us to reach at a stage wherein we can provide our clients best and accurate investment to output ratio.

Each report that we prepare takes a timeframe of 350-400 business hours for production. Starting from the selection of titles through a couple of in-depth brain storming session to the final QC process before uploading our titles on our website we dedicate around 350 working hours. The titles are selected based on their current market cap and the foreseen CAGR and growth.

 

The 5 steps process:

Step 1: Secondary Research:

Secondary Research or Desk Research is as the name suggests is a research process wherein, we collect data through the readily available information. In this process we use various paid and unpaid databases which our team has access to and gather data through the same. This includes examining of listed companies’ annual reports, Journals, SEC filling etc. Apart from this our team has access to various associations across the globe across different industries. Lastly, we have exchange relationships with various university as well as individual libraries.

Secondary Research

Step 2: Primary Research

When we talk about primary research, it is a type of study in which the researchers collect relevant data samples directly, rather than relying on previously collected data.  This type of research is focused on gaining content specific facts that can be sued to solve specific problems. Since the collected data is fresh and first hand therefore it makes the study more accurate and genuine.

We at SNS Insider have divided Primary Research into 2 parts.

Part 1 wherein we interview the KOLs of major players as well as the upcoming ones across various geographic regions. This allows us to have their view over the market scenario and acts as an important tool to come closer to the accurate market numbers. As many as 45 paid and unpaid primary interviews are taken from both the demand and supply side of the industry to make sure we land at an accurate judgement and analysis of the market.

This step involves the triangulation of data wherein our team analyses the interview transcripts, online survey responses and observation of on filed participants. The below mentioned chart should give a better understanding of the part 1 of the primary interview.

Primary Research

Part 2: In this part of primary research the data collected via secondary research and the part 1 of the primary research is validated with the interviews from individual consultants and subject matter experts.

Consultants are those set of people who have at least 12 years of experience and expertise within the industry whereas Subject Matter Experts are those with at least 15 years of experience behind their back within the same space. The data with the help of two main processes i.e., FGDs (Focused Group Discussions) and IDs (Individual Discussions). This gives us a 3rd party nonbiased primary view of the market scenario making it a more dependable one while collation of the data pointers.

Step 3: Data Bank Validation

Once all the information is collected via primary and secondary sources, we run that information for data validation. At our intelligence centre our research heads track a lot of information related to the market which includes the quarterly reports, the daily stock prices, and other relevant information. Our data bank server gets updated every fortnight and that is how the information which we collected using our primary and secondary information is revalidated in real time.

Data Bank Validation

Step 4: QA/QC Process

After all the data collection and validation our team does a final level of quality check and quality assurance to get rid of any unwanted or undesired mistakes. This might include but not limited to getting rid of the any typos, duplication of numbers or missing of any important information. The people involved in this process include technical content writers, research heads and graphics people. Once this process is completed the title gets uploader on our platform for our clients to read it.

Step 5: Final QC/QA Process:

This is the last process and comes when the client has ordered the study. In this process a final QA/QC is done before the study is emailed to the client. Since we believe in giving our clients a good experience of our research studies, therefore, to make sure that we do not lack at our end in any way humanly possible we do a final round of quality check and then dispatch the study to the client.
