Kevin Burgon jailed for owning illegal weapon

Military expert Kevin Burgon, who played a tank driver in Brad Pitt's war movie 'Fury', has been jailed for owning an illegal gun.

Burgon, who also appeared as an extra in 2007 movie 'Atonement', is a registered firearms owner in his native UK but was arrested after weapons inspectors discovered he had a banned World War Two pistol in his collection, reported Daily Express.

He pleaded guilty to possessing a prohibited firearm and ammunition without a certificate and was sentenced to three years and four months prison by a judge at Teesside Crown Court, England this week.
