Sixteen people have been charged with 76 offences as a result of a six-month operation by Campbelltown police targeting drug suppliers in the area.
Ten men and six women have been charged with a range of offences including supply prohibited drug and drug supply on an ongoing basis.
One of the man has been charged with two counts of supplying a firearm and an armed robbery of a Bargo service station in September last year.
He was refused bail and will appear in Campbelltown Local Court on April 17.
Campbelltown PAC crime manager Detective Inspector Greg Inger said while the results were pleasing, officers will continue to target drug-related crime.
“We will not tolerate any members of our community who manufacture, sell or take drugs,” he said.
“You will be targeted, and you will be charged and put before the courts.”
The operation by Campbelltown police began in October last year and involved a number of detectives and plain clothes operatives.
