Neighbours in Castlefield were woken at dawn after police descended on a property following reports that a man had a gun - but no weapons were found.
Police swooped on Spearing Road at around 5am on August 4 to reports of a disturbance and a 28-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of possessing a firearm.
Officers say a "thorough" investigation was carried out but no gun was found.
No one was injured and no one identified themselves as a victim, so the man was released with no further action.
