Police allege they discovered 11 handguns, two AR15 rifles, and in excess of 10,000 rounds of ammunition, buried in barrels, buckets and tubing on a property twenty minutes outside of Stanthorpe in August.
The discovery came as police were conducting follow-up investigations into the 1997 murder of Philip Carlyle.
