A man and a woman are due to appear in court after firearms and ammunition were seized by gardai in Dublin.
On Friday afternoon, Gardai attached to the Blanchardstown District stopped a car on the Old Navan Road.
The two people in the car were found to be in possession of a pistol and ammunition, gardai said.
A man aged in his 20s and a woman aged in her 30s were arrested at the scene and were detained at a Garda station in Dublin under Section 30 of the Offences Against the State Act, 1939.
Follow-up searches were then carried out on Friday evening at two addresses in Dublin.
During the course of these searches, two more firearms were seized including a submachine gun and sawn-off shotgun, as well as ammunition.
All three seized firearms and ammunition are subject to analysis by the ballistics section of the Garda National Technical Bureau.
