Oxley police have warned that Strike Force Raptor - the force's anti-gangs squad - will return as police try to dismantle the two bikie gangs linked to Gunnedah and Narrabri. And Tamworth is next.

"Police are currently monitoring Tamworth; it is a focus and that operation is ongoing," Oxley Detective Inspector Jason Darcy told the Leader.

"Strike Force Raptor will be returning to the area."

All the raids on Friday and Saturday by Oxley police and the Raptor squad occurred at the homes of men who are already subject to firearms prohibition orders - an order that allows police to search them, their homes and cars at any time without a search warrant.

And, off the back of the crackdown on outlaw motorcycle gangs (OMCG) and their associates, police are promising to use the consorting legislation to stop habitual offenders associating with each other.

"We'll be using consorting warnings, and we have started that," Detective Darcy said.

"Consorting warnings stop habitual offenders associating with one another and that is part of our policing operation to target illegal behaviour.

"We will also use further traffic and highway patrol units and council operators to issue infringements to enforce the rules and regulations to target anti-social behaviour and OMCG movements that these people in our communities are involved in."

Under NSW laws, those who continue to habitually associate with a convicted offender, after a warning is issued, face up to three years in prison or a fine of $16,500.

Investigations are continuing into the weekend raids and the goods seized.

Cash was seized at a Mitchell Street home in Wee Waa; cannabis was seized in a Park Crescent, Narrabri house; and a prohibited weapon, and what police allege is a quantity of drugs and restricted substances, were seized by police from a Farrer Road home in Gunnedah. Goods were also seized in Gunnedah from a Links Road property.
