Overall, craft production stands out as the second most prominent source of illicit weapons for the countries that replied to the country questionnaire, although quite far behind illicit cross-border transfers by land. Seven countries reported the presence of such production on their territory (Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Guinea, Mali, Senegal, Sierra Leone, and Tanzania), while five reported seizing or recovering such weapons since 2011 (Central African Republic, Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Guinea, and Liberia).
