LMFM By Michael Carolan, Richard McCullen It follows a four day trial at Trim Circuit Court. A man has been convicted of possessing a sub machine gun in Co Meath last year but cleared of possessing ammunition following a four day trial at Trim Circuit Court. 57-year-old Stephen Gibbons of Rockleigh House, Richardstown, Gormanston, Co Meath had pleaded not guilty to a charge of unlawfully possessing the sub machine gun and 12 rounds of ammunition on or about January 15th 2020 at Richardstown, Gormanston. A Garda ballistics expert told the court the sub machine dated from 1945 and was coated in a thick lubricant and was serviceable but two discharged bullets were blocking the barrell and there was no evidence to suggest it had recently been discharged.
