Police were investigating illegal manufacturing of guns since September
A 30-year old Niagara Falls man is facing a range of criminal weapon charges, after an investigation into illegal manufacturing and trafficking of guns.

Police seized numerous guns, rifles, bullets and other items.
Police add he was scheduled for a bail hearing today in St. Catharines.
They're also asking if anyone has information regarding this case to give them a call.
