Abstract

The recently formed social tension in society, the crisis in the economy, medicine, politics, social sphere, the decline in the authority of state bodies is reflected in the growth of crime, the increase in the degree of public danger of certain types of it.

One of the urgent problems of modern society is the state of crime in the sphere of arms trafficking. Illegal arms trafficking contributes to the growth of crime in the country and in the world, including its organized forms, and poses a real threat to public security.

Illegal arms trafficking currently causes many problems related to the illegal production of weapons, their smuggling across the State border, illegal arms trade, including the supply of weapons to organized criminal groups, gangs and communities, as well as the preparation and commission of serious crimes by criminal communities, in particular extremist and terrorist groups.

The illicit trafficking and misuse of firearms are inextricably linked to these criminal organizations and networks: as accomplices of violent crimes, as tools for achieving power, and as lucrative trade goods that fuel armed conflicts, crime and insecurity. Often, various forms of crime are intertwined, for example, human trafficking, firearms and drugs.

The authors of the study, having analyzed the current Law regulating state control over the turnover of certain types of weapons, came to the conclusion about its relative stability and effectiveness. They proposed to reveal the concept of «ammunition» and «cartridge», to expand the conceptual apparatus of the types of cartridges, to consider the introduction of responsibility of employees of the licensing and licensing system, as well as the adoption of a new Law in connection with the amendment and addition of almost 90% of the provisions of the Law, etc.
