(9e) Several Member States have recently simplified the way they classify firearms by switching from four categories to the following two: prohibited firearms and firearms subject to authorisation.

(43) In line with the Commission Communication "The European Agenda for Security"., in answer to the EU minister's Riga Joint Statement and to the Declaration from the Home Affairs Ministers of 29 August 2015, ,the proposal accompanying this report will aim to reinforce the existing legislative framework on firearms, to improve the sharing of information, to address trafficking and reactivation of weapons, to enhance standards for marking in view of better traceability, and, finally, it will consider how to address the issues related to convertibility of weapons or blank-firing weapons (i.e. alarm weapons).

The directive defines four categories of firearms (prohibited, subject to authorisation, subject to declaration, and subject to no authorisation or declaration), requires records of transfers of firearms to be kept for 5 years, creates a European firearms pass for the movement of weapons in the Community and encourages exchange of information between Member States.

Others highlighted the threat caused by converted and reactivated firearms, pointed out that these weapons are not covered by the current directive, and therefore called for stricter rules, in particular: an indestructible marking of weapons; a ban on geometric marking; strict requirements for qualifications of dealers; a clear definition of brokers; the keeping of digitised data for an unlimited period; guidelines for deactivation of weapons; the incorporation in the directive of the import of weapons into the EU; the limitation to two categories of firearms (prohibited or subject to authorisation); restrictions on how many fire ...[+++]arms a single person is allowed to own; and physical inspections in case of transfer of weapons.

For its part, the Commission is considering the possibility of laying down common standards for the reporting of seized or recovered firearms used for crime, or firearms that have been diverted, lost or stolen.

A legislative instrument laying down common standards for the reporting of seized or recovered firearms used for crime, or firearms that have been diverted, lost or stolen could be considered.
