Blazon: I svart et gull elggevir. In English: Sable moose antlers or.
Approved by the royal resolution of of 21 December 1984 after a drawing by Nora Stommyrbakken and Einar H. Skjervold. [c2j87]
The region is known for hunting and mountain traditions. A monumental set of antlers of rare golden colour are displayed in the municipal hall and they were used as model for the arms.
The Namsskogan mayor explains the origin of the municipal arms as if reading a fairy tail http://www.adressa.no/tv/?id=28915
