10 Weapons and explosives offences

Weapons and explosives offences include the unlawful trafficking, distribution, dealing, manufacture, possession, and use of weapons and explosives that are prohibited or regulated under legislation.

Weapons and explosives may include, but are not limited to, firearms (including replicas), knives or blades, batons or other blunt weapons, grenades, flamethrowers, weapons disguised as jewellery, other melee weapons, flares, firecrackers, tasers, ammunition, weapons parts, biological weapons, pepper spray or other chemical weapons. Radioactive materials, although used in weapons, are excluded from this division, as they are instead considered a hazardous substance.
