A 25-year-old man from Yorks, Malique Challenger, has been sentenced for possessing a dangerous firearm, a Brown .45 Remington pistol, originally used in World War II, along with seven rounds of ammunition.
On June 21, 2025, police executed a search warrant at Challenger’s residence, where they uncovered the weapon and ammunition in the kitchen.
Challenger confessed to owning the pistol, which was noted by the court for its potential danger.
Among the seven rounds, three were hollow-point, designed to inflict severe injuries. As a result, Challenger received a sentence of three years and eight months in HM Prison for the firearm possession, with an additional year for the ammunition charge, both to be served concurrently.
But where the hell he get that from
Where would he get a gun like that? I would really love to know. Honestly
Every dangerous weapon off the street is a reason to celebrate victory. So leta be happy there is a one less weapon on the streets
World war when? Hahahaha. Boy. That must have been dugged out of a hole somewhere. Where would he have access to that kind of weapon?
Malique, you are stupid boy. Go and take your time in prison with your stupid ass. Yall just love make your families and friends look bad.
A gun used in World War II? I wasn’t even born then! This is some thing I see as wild and crazy! Where did he get such a dangerous weapon?
Dangerous indeed, love to see the police clearing the streets of these weapons. These boys thought they would be “gun men” forever
We need to pay extra special attention to our borders. These guns and ammunition are being floated into the country through our borders. We don’t make guns here. Right?
We don’t manufacture guns like this here. This is a serious wake-up call for Customs and Border Patrol. We need to tighten up!
Very frightening that this person could have that calibre of weapon
Wow, lol. These stories are very hilarious. A 25-year-old man in Yorks was found with a World War II pistol and ammunition in his kitchen? That’s just crazy! How did he even get his hands on something like that? It’s alarming to think about the potential danger he posed. I’m really shocked by this news!
