• Forty legal magazines
• Roughly 10,000 rounds of ammunition
• Holsters, gun belt and magazines pouches

A pound of marijuana, two ounces of hashish and eight grams of “shatter”
Both of the accused face 19 firearm related offences, including making an automatic firearm and possession of a prohibited firearm. They also face four drug related offences.
Police say the investigation is still early going and officers are trying to determine the reason behind the cache of weapons.
Anyone with information about the weapons is asked to contact police or Crime Stoppers.
