A Wigan man has been jailed for three years and five months after admitting to having a pen disguised as a gun plus live ammunition.
On his first appearance before a Bolton Crown judge, 31-year-old Craig Walker, of HMP Whatton, had pleaded guilty to having the disguised weapon in Golborne without a firearms certificate or permission from the secretary of state in Golborne on September 27 plus 27 .22 cartridges, also without a certificate.
Sentence was handed down on his return to court.
