Antique revolver was found loaded inside Armani man bag behind pensioner's garden shed
A convicted drug dealer tried to claim that a gun discovered with his DNA on it had been forced into his mouth by a gang of thugs.
The "rusty" gun had been manufactured between 1915 and 1920 but was successfully test fired. Maher, of Clayton Crescent in Old Swan, was connected to the weapon after his DNA was found inside the barrel. "He wishes to get away from the criminal lifestyle that he was leading. He is beginning to realise that continued criminality will lead to continued periods of incarceration, which will be increasingly lengthy."
"This was a fully functioning prohibited firearm, and presumably at some point the gun had been used to discharge the three bullets loaded in it. This was a gun that had been used and was capable of being used with lethal potential. "You have a significant record of previous convictions. I have no doubt that your possession of this weapon is to do with your lifestyle as a drug dealer.
"Quite why you did that is not altogether clear, but I am prepared to accept that you moved there because you wanted a different life. It may be that you were running away from others.
