The stash of illegal goods were found during a police raid on Wednesday however the couple deny owning the gun.  

Both had differing stories, one telling Campbelltown Local Court the gun was found in the shed while the other said it was found in the backyard after a break and enter, according to the publication. 

The magistrate said it was ‘concerning’ the gun hadn’t been taken to police as soon as it was found.
