Police investigating the murder of Canberra artist Eden Waugh have recovered a firearm from the Queanbeyan River.
ACT Policing said a crow bar was also recovered and forensic officers would now examine the two items.
Eden Waugh was shot dead in his Watson home on 3 November last year.
Police last month charged a 29-year-old Karabar man with accessory to the murder of the 37-year-old artist but are still following several lines of inquiry to bring the killer or killers to justice.
They have now concluded their search of the river and surrounds.
