Overview
- The High Court in Glasgow sentenced Robert Weir on Friday to seven years and six months after he admitted firearms and drug offences.
- Police searching a storage unit at Sandpoint Marina in Dumbarton in March 2025 found a shortened loaded Russian-made shotgun, a loaded Japanese shotgun, and two handguns with ammunition.
- Earlier that day, officers searching his home found 1.7kg of cannabis in vacuum-sealed bags, digital scales, and two swords.
- Forensic tests found both shotguns were in working order, one designed for 16-bore and the other for 12-bore cartridges, and his DNA was on several weapons.
- Prosecutor Sineidin Corrins said the recovery removed weapons with the potential for significant harm and showed ongoing coordination with police to tackle such crimes.
