A man who moved to the Coast to leave his "deplorable" life of crime behind him has landed before the court again after police found a weapon in his roof.
Adding to his 19-page criminal history, Kerrod Tighe pleaded guilty on Wednesday to unlawful possession of a category M weapon and possessing utensils or pipes that had been used.
The Caloundra Magistrates Court heard police found the illegal taser and drug utensils during a search of Tighe's house on January 7.
Police prosecutor Mark Burrell said the officers, who were there in relation to another matter, saw a "bowl with a small amount of green material" which sparked the search.
