Antique Pistol Used in Massachussetts Stickup

Two Springfield, MA teens were charged with using what turned out to be an antique pistol during an attempted robbery of a bicyclist Wednesday.

Tyriesse J. Jackson, 17, and a 16-year-old juvenile whose name was not released were charged with armed assault with intent to rob. Jackson also had an outstanding warrant.

A bicyclist told police two teens approached him and tried to rob him, displaying a pistol in his waistband. Police recovered the gun in the home of the 16-year-old and described it as an antique, single-action handgun of unknown make and caliber.

Sorry circumstances and Antiqueswest hopes Mssr's Jackson and "unnamed juvenile" get what's coming to them but we'd also like to get a look at that pistol!
