A man has been granted bail after a Goonellabah car stop allegedly uncovered a shotgun, ammunition and methamphetamine shortly after midnight.
Troy Andrew Said, 49, faces eight charges following his arrest on Thursday.
Police were patrolling the area shortly after midnight when they stopped an unregistered vehicle in a carpark on Wallerawang Drive.
While speaking with the driver, officers allegedly spotted a firearm inside the cabin and immediately arrested him.
Police allege a subsequent search uncovered a double-barrel shotgun, ammunition, a pocketknife, a slingshot and 0.7 grams of methamphetamine.
Said was taken to Lismore Police Station, where he was charged with possessing an unauthorised firearm, possessing ammunition without a licence, permit or authority, and failing to keep a firearm safely.
He was also charged with possessing or using a prohibited weapon without a permit, custody of a knife in a public place, possessing a prohibited drug, having goods in his custody suspected of being stolen, and using an unregistered vehicle on a road.
Said came before Judge L Robinson in Bail Division Thursday afternoon, where he was granted conditional bail.
He must report to Lismore Police Station three days a week, contact a treatment provider within seven days and accept any reasonably recommended treatment, including attending appointments.
His conditions also prohibit alcohol and drugs unless prescribed by a doctor.
He must provide a breath or oral fluid sample if directed by police when reporting.
The matter is next listed for mention at Lismore Local Court November 9.
