David Walker, 28, had the gun stuffed down his trousers when it went off by mistake.

Sheffield Crown Court heard that he went home for the sawn-off shotgun after spending an evening in the pub arguing with an old pal about whose turn it was to buy a beer.

Andrew Hatton, prosecuting, said: “He went home to get his gun. As he was returning to the area of the pub with it the gun went off. He had it shoved down his trousers.

“After the shotgun had discharged he placed it in a rubbish bin and crawled back to his home address.”

Walker underwent emergency surgery following the incident in Dinnington, South Yorkshire. Gulzar Syed, defending, said: “He is still suffering as a result of the injuries. “He still feels quite severe pain. There are still pellets embedded within the scrotum area of his body.”

Mr Syed told the judge that Walker had bought the gun for just £15 four years ago, for his own protection. Walker admitted one charge of possession of a prohibited firearm. Judge Robert Moore said recent legislation regarding banned guns meant he had to impose the statutory minimum sentence on Walker of five years in prison.
