A suspected Head Hunters gangster appeared in court this afternoon after a police raid on a Christchurch gang pad earlier today allegedly uncovered loaded guns, drugs and cash.
Police executed a search warrant on an Avondale property this morning and made two arrests.
Two unsecured, loaded firearms, a quantity of methamphetamine, cash and a Taser were recovered, police said.
Stephen Wallace Smith, 31, who police say has known links to the Head Hunters gang, appeared from custody at Christchurch District Court.
He made no plea to charges of possession of class A drug methamphetamine for supply and two charges of unlawful firearms possession -- a sawn-off .22 calibre Ruger rifle and a Smith & Wesson .32 calibre pistol.
