Three men have been jailed after anti-terror police discovered a horde of guns in south London.
Adam Ali had attempted to buy a gun from the dark web while his brother possessed a reactivated Llama pistol, Croydon Crown Court heard.
Nikajlevs then tested the gun for the brothers, the court was told.
Terror police raided the Ali’s home, in Ederline Avenue, and found the loaded 9mm pistol in Abdullah’s bedroom.
A Hungarian FEG 9mm pistol, pars of an AK47 assault rifle and 54 rounds of ammunition were also discovered.
Alongside the weapons haul, police found potassium nitrate and sulphur – used to make gunpowder – a bulletproof vest and books about making guns and ammunition, the court heard.
A laptop, USB sticks and discs, containing a US Army survival guide and instructions on making guns and explosives were seized from the house.
All three men pleaded guilty to possession of firearms on November 2 last year.
Each man was sentenced to five years behind bars at the same court on Thursday.
The Ali brothers were also found guilty of possession of ammunition.
Commander Dean Haydon, of the Counter Terrorism Command, said: "These men had a working firearm and ammunition which, in the wrong hands, could have endangered lives.
“Counter terrorism officers have ensured that these firearms, components and gunpowder chemicals are now safely off our streets and that the men have been brought to the courts to face justice."
