A NSW Police Force employee wanted for questioning over missing police weaponry has been charged with firearms offences.
There had been a statewide manhunt for the man who works with firearms at the NSW police centre in Sydney, but he handed himself into police on Saturday.
He has been charged with a number of firearms offences including aggravated possession of firearms and unauthorised manufacture of firearms.
Police said on Friday a raid of the man's Berkeley Vale home the previous day had uncovered firearms they believed were misappropriated from the Surry Hills centre.
A statewide manhunt began on Friday but the 38-year-old contacted police at Berkeley Vale around 10.15am (AEDT) on Saturday and was taken to Wyong police station.
He was charged with aggravated possession of firearms, unauthorised manufacture of firearms, two counts of possession of prohibited pistol, three counts of possession of prohibited firearm, five counts of possession of prohibited weapon and a single count of not keeping a firearm safe.
The man was refused bail and will appear in Gosford Local Court on Sunday.
Investigations are continuing and police anticipate laying further charges.
During Thursday's search of the man's home, detectives allegedly located firearms, firearm parts, ammunition of various calibers, machining equipment and prohibited weapons.
On Friday, Firearms and Organised Crime Squad Commander Ken Finch said the man had emerged as a person of interest in a long-running investigation into the missing equipment.
