A man is due to face Newcastle Local Court court today on drug supply and firearms charges.
Police raided a home on Teralba Road at Broadmeadow yesterday morning and seized a shortened 12 gauge shotgun, two pistols, methylamphetamine (ICE), more than 1000 ecstasy tablets and what's believed to be a pill press machine.
Police say they also found a hydroponic set up in the garage of the home along with 41 cannabis plants.
A 44-year-old man was arrested at the home and taken to Waratah Police Station.
He's been charged with a range of offenses including the large commercial supply of a prohibited drug (ICE) and firearms charges.
