The AFP-led National Anti-Gangs Squad (NAGS) seized 96 firearms and arrested 66 outlaw motorcycle gang members and associates last financial year.
The deadly arsenal included military-grade automatic weapons, sawn-off shotguns, loaded handguns and firearm parts.
AFP Detective Superintendent Anthony Conway said while some weapons were hidden in wall cavities or storage containers, investigators found others loaded and easily accessible in cars and homes, highlighting the risks posed to police and the public.
“Outlaw motorcycle gangs will use firearms to commit violent acts, as well as to intimidate rivals to protect their criminal interests. Even when they are targeting each other, their access to these weapons puts innocent people at risk,” Det-Supt Conway said.
“They have callous disregard for the lives of others and that is why the NAGS teams are focused on seizing illicit firearms and disrupting their criminal businesses however we can.”
