In a news release provided to Xinhua on Tuesday, the Ministry of Public Security provided details of its crackdown in three provinces of Sichuan, Liaoning and Jilin.
In the southwestern province of Sichuan, police confiscated about 5,500 guns, including pistols, hunting rifles, and home-made and military weapons, the police said.
Police in Sichuan also rounded up 203 grenades, 23,500 rounds of ammunition, and 25 tons of explosives during the crackdown, according to the ministry.
The illegal trade of dynamite used in coal mining has been a top concern of authorities following a number of deadly explosions in residential areas.
In Liaoning, the northeastern province, police raids over the past two months netted 336 guns, 10,884 bullets, and 1.91 tons of explosives.
The police melted the firearms in 13 furnaces, according to the ministry.
More than 1,000 people involved in 244 separate cases were charged with firearms crimes in the provinces of Jilin and Sichuan.
