Table 5: Weapons seized by security agencies, or reported stolen to police (1999–2003)

Year: Confiscated Firearms - Firearms Reported Stolen - Total
1999: 1,346 - 136 - 1,482
2000: 958 - 210 - 1,168
2001: 1,458 - 219 - 1,677
2002: 1,074 - 240 - 1,314
2003*: 1,224 - 237 - 1,461
Average: 1,212 - 208 - 1,420

Note: Seizure statistics in the above table are totals recorded by all agencies under control of the MoI. Seizures recorded by the Customs Agency are ignored to avoid double counting (there is considerable overlap with Border Police figures, but the differences are not large in terms of overall seizures).
* Note: MOI agencies used a different method from previous years when compiling data for 2003 onwards.
