Speaking about the special public danger of illicit arms trafficking, attention is drawn to the fact that it consists, first of all, in creating the necessary conditions for the commission of other serious and especially grave crimes, as well as the growth of armed crime in general. In addition, a phenomenon such as the latent arms trafficking plays a huge role. The statistical data concerning the commission of the analyzed crimes are presented in the mass media and in official state editions.
