Samuel Schindler, of Central Islip, was arrested on Saturday, Feb. 5, after a search warrant was executed at his home on Tamarack Street, according to the Suffolk County Police Department.
Police searched the residence and found two loaded handguns, a 9mm and a 40 caliber, authorities said.
The two handguns were what are commonly known as "ghost guns," which are built from a kit and don't have serial numbers or traceable features, SCPD said.
Investigators also seized a kit used to manufacture ghost guns and a homemade apperatus used to test the weapons, police said.
Police said Schindler was charged with two counts of criminal possession of a firearm and two counts of third-degree criminal possession of a weapon.
His arraignment was scheduled for Sunday, Feb. 6, SCPD said.
Police said the investigation is ongoing.
