Let me play the devil's advocate here again, the problem is not the arms dealers alone,but the system that has allowed these men to flourish. we have been purchasing arms from privately owned firms around the world while denying our own domestic manufacturers to make small arms. and this monopoly has led to a lethargy in the entire arms development gamut and more importantly the defense PSU's. INSAS is a great rifle and pretty well designed to boot but it suffers from manufacturing defects due to shoddy supervision and quality control at Icchapore and other factories. what needs to be done is building a domestic small arms industry with multiple players and then only then shall we be able to contain arms agents, i do not say we shall be able to do away with them completely not yet!
