James Maxwell, 28, from Leven, Fife, also ordered ammunition and searched online for when schools broke up for Christmas 2022.
A man who bought a gun from the US on the dark web and searched the internet for the Dunblane massacre has been jailed for five years.
In September, Maxwell pleaded guilty to purchasing and attempting to acquire a prohibited weapon without permission or without holding a firearms certificate between December 1, 2022 and January 11, 2023. During sentencing, judge Lord Ericht told Maxwell: "You did a search for when the schools broke up for Christmas 2022.Lord Ericht told the court the ammunition Maxwell had ordered would cause "greater injury" than standard use ammunition and it had not been lawfully acquired in the UK.
Concluding, Lord Ericht said: "I commend both the USA law officers and Police Scotland for their actions in ensuring the gun and ammunition were not received by you."His lawyer, Jonathan Crowe, told the court in mitigation that Maxwell had a "troubled upbringing" and left secondary school aged 13 following the death of his father by suicide.
