Two City of Mandurah covert cameras were among the seized items.
Detective Constable Starbuck said a man had been arrested in relation to the pursuit.
Police are continuing enquiries into the seized weapons, before charges are laid.
Detective Constable Starbuck said it was always great when firearms were taken off the street.
