A scuffle broke out in Red Lion pub in Cardigan, west Wales on the evening of April 2, 2018 when a customer saw the imitation weapon in the waistband of Fraser Daniel Rees’ trousers and tried to disarm him.
Rees claimed it was intended as a prop for his mother’s amateur theatre production.
Rees denied possession of an imitation firearm in a public place – saying he had a reasonable excuse for having it with him and in any case had lawful authority to carry it – but was found guilty following a Swansea Crown Court trial.
The gun was a replica of a Walther PPK, the handgun made famous by actors Sean Connery and Roger Moore as James Bond.
