A man addicted to an online gun-fighting game was sentenced to three years jail after living out his fantasies in real life in Yinzhou of Zhejiang province recently.

Businessman Zhang Qiang, 29, has played Counter-Strike, an online gunfighting game, for years until two years ago, when he began to play games offline with toy guns.

Then recently, he bought several real firearms and 1,000 bullets.

He was sentenced to three years in prison for illegally trading firearms.
