Incorporate this text in the Section J attachment of Solicitations and Contracts when purchasing any small arms/light weapon that requires tracking and controlling by serial number under the Small Arms/Light Weapons Serialization Program, and reporting in accordance with AR 710-3 (Inventory Management Asset and Transaction Reporting System) and DoD 4000.25-2-M (Military Standard Transaction Reporting and Accountability Procedures (MILSTRAP)).
SMALL ARMS/LIGHT WEAPONS SERIALIZATION PROGRAM (SA/LWSP)
(a) Definitions. This paragraph defines specific terms utilized throughout the rest of the text and in the accompanying Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL). The Data Item Description (DID) (DI-MISC-80914B) can be found at the following website: http://quicksearch.dla.mil/. These documents aid in clarifying the SA/LWSP requirements to Government and contractor personnel.
(1) Department of Defense (DoD) SA/LW Registry. DoD central repository for small arms and light weapons (SA/LW) serial numbers. The registry serves as the single point of access for inquires relating to the last known record of SA/LW serial numbers. Serial numbers are provided by the component registries on a scheduled and as required basis.
(2) Small Arms and Light Weapons. For the purpose of small arms and light weapons reporting, small arms and light weapons are defined as man-portable weapons made or modified to military specifications for use as lethal instruments of war that expel a shot, bullet or projectile by action of an explosive. Small arms are broadly categorized as those weapons intended for use by individual members of armed or security forces. They include handguns, rifles and carbines, sub-machine guns, and light machine guns. Light weapons are broadly categorized as those weapons designed for use by two or three members of armed or security forces serving as a crew, although some may be used by a single person. They include heavy machine guns, hand-held under-barrel and mounted grenade launchers, portable anti- aircraft guns, portable anti-tank guns, recoilless rifles, man-portable launchers of missile and rocket systems, and mortars.
(3) Small Arms/Light Weapons Serial Number. The total series of characters appearing on the firing component part of a small arm or light weapons.
(4) Small Arms/Light Weapons Transaction Reporting. Reporting of individual transactions affecting the small arms or light weapons serial numbers' status within any component registry and the DoD Small Arms/Light Weapons Registry (also known as the DoD Registry).

Any Small Arms weapon manufactured under contract for the US Government is considered a sensitive item and requires tracking and controlling by serial number under the Small Arms/Light Weapons Serialization Program, to include reporting in accordance with DoD 4000.25-2-M (Military Standard Transaction Reporting and Accounting Procedures). The contractor is required to submit all Small Arms/Light Weapons Serialization Program (SA/LWSP) control transactions to the DOD Central Registry for recording as part of the mandatory requirements of this contract. This reporting shall be accomplished through the use of an 80 column Weapon Serial Number (WSN) transaction on the mandatory LOGSA spreadsheet in accordance with (DID) DI-MISC-80914B, as attached in section “J” of this solicitation and/or contract.
2. In addition, on the LOGSA spreadsheet, if a contractor receives GFP, then they will fill out the Reporting DoDAAC field with a DoDAAC assigned to them from the UIT registry. If a contractor does not have GFP, then they will fill out the Reporting DoDAAC field with a "0" plus their cage code. This spreadsheet must be filled out correctly or it will be rejected from LOGSA.
3. Transactions can be submitted either by e-mail with attached flat text file to the Logistics Support Activity (LOGSA) or by direct upload into WEB UIT. NOTE: The preferred method of submission is via email to LOGSA’s mailbox.
