The NYPD’s 100th Precinct bragged about taking this dangerous weapon off the street over the weekend. . .

Our Field Intelligence Team, quickly acted on intel they received and were able to removed this illegal Firearm off the street. #Onelessgun pic.twitter.com/fwaeV9by2w

Or maybe it’s a gun left over from the prohibition era?

The Pony Express can now safely cross the Appalachians thanks to the hard work of these folks keeping such dangerous weapons out of the hands of bootleggers and such ruffians! https://t.co/YTJ4tBpjiC

The NYPD didn’t tell us anything about the arrest, but we can make an assumption, right?
