David Herbert, prosecuting, told Derby Crown Court that Forrest-Clarke was "willingly involved in the gun scene in Derby".
Mr Herbert said a photograph of young men posing with firearms in Forrest-Clarke's bedroom had been found on someone else's mobile.
Mr Herbert said: "He was involved with a number of people, some of those people have also been arrested and dealt with for gun crime or are due to be dealt with early next year."
Forrest-Clarke pleaded guilty to possessing a prohibited firearm, two charges of possessing ammunition without a firearms certificate, possessing prohibited ammunition and possessing cannabis with intent to supply.
Derbyshire Constabulary Assistant Chief Constable Peter Goodman said: "In light of the events of this week in which Kadeem Blackwood was shot dead I think it is important to demonstrate to the communities of Derby that people are being brought to justice for gun crime.
"Guns are lethal weapons not toys or status symbols and Kadeem's untimely death is testament to that.

“Matt, I get that you've been smoking it for 15 years.
If that's not dependancy. What is it exactly?
Why do you not smoke it? Is the reality around you too much to cope with without getting stoned?
If you didn't feel like you "needed" it, you wouldn't smoke it. Simple.”

“95% of my friends smoke illegal substances but none of them have a gun? we all get it from differnet sources and i have never once been worried about getting shot.
Gang culture is not directly linked with drugs - i personally know gang members who are clean living.
5 years is a joke!.. terrible state of affairs.”

“Sonia, thing is though, my judgement is true.
As you seem to wantonly support Drug users who cause all types of societal problems, however unwittingly that may be. I think considering other people's feeling is something you need to learn for yourself.
I don't care how YOU feel, I want certain types of crimes often fatal to some to be prevented. I have clear pointed out the cause, and have offered a clear solution.
You however have not, otherwise your contribution to this topic would of been greater than the base name-calling and personal attacks. And you talk about considering other peole's feelings? What a hypocrite.
I could comment on your use of grammar but I can't be bothered.”

“Matt = Junkie.
Clear enough?
**
No it isnt clear... a junkie is someone who has a life long addiction & dependancy to a substance.
I dont know why I'm wasting my time with you but i think It may help you...
I've smoked it through my own choice..its never affected my relations..my career or my life in general.. I have a smoke like other people have a drink..to relax..
Do you get it yet?”

“Would you at least agree then, that those people who DO by cannabis from Drugs dealers, put money into the hands of drugs dealers, helping them to buy arms, which they later may use in criminal activity? **
Yes I agree in full... they should make it legal..poblem solved.. I only said that smoking it doesnt automatically lead to class a, gangs & guns & it doesnt... thats a personal choice that people make!”

No, you're not a junkie at all.
You obviously grow cannabis or you buy it, which is it?”

“Know more than you evidently Sonia. Like how shops and businesses function.
If people don't buy things they can't sell them.
Simple no?
"
thats just like saying that people who smoke are in a chain for shops and the makers i.e embassy etc. just like alcohol etc"
i didnt say that Embassy smokers dont contribute...i was just making a point.
Yes you did.
Your point = Epic fail.
Try and remember what you typed 5 minutes ago.
Interesting the sort of logic drug users and their supporters of drugs use.
They are in a different reality. They even lie about what they say, and never back up their so called points.”
