POLICE carried out a drugs raid on a house and found two stun guns disguised as mobile phones.
They also found air pistols, an air rifle and a live bullet at the home of Peter Howieson.
As a result, Howieson, 58, of Kirkland Avenue, Ballingry, appeared in the dock at Dunfermline Sheriff Court.
He admitted that on November 18 at his home he was in possession of two stun guns disguised as mobile phones.
He was also in possession of two air pistols and an air rifle without holding a certificate.
He further admitted being in possession of a live bullet without holding a firearm certificate.
Depute fiscal, Kyrsten Buist, said police had obtained a drugs search warrant for Howieson’s home and executed it on November 18.
On top of a fridge officers found two stun guns disguised to look like mobile phones.
Defence solicitor, Gordon Martin, said that from photographs taken at the time: “It’s clear he is someone who collects items.”
He suggested that his client’s home would be a good location for the TV programme ‘How Clean is Your House’ about de-cluttering.
Sheriff Charles MacNair called for reports and Howieson will return to court to be sentenced on August 22.
