Bx. gang in good ol’ daze

Oldie but deadly (
)

Prosecutors broke up an oddly armed Bronx gang that used text messages, social media and antique guns to ply its narcotics trade, officials said yesterday.

Seventeen members of the “Dub City” crew were named in a 35-count indictment that includes conspiracy, assault, weapons-possession and drug-sales charges, authorities said.

The armory of Dub City, based between East 175th Street and East 177th streets from Walton to Jerome avenues, included 10 guns, including two antiques — a .32-caliber Smith & Wesson that dates back to the 1880s and a .38-caliber Smith & Wesson that could be 80 years old, authorities said.

“This is like the gang who couldn’t shoot straight; they are not gun aficionados,” said firearms instructor and use-of-force expert Kenneth Cooper.

Antiques or not, the guns were no less lethal.

“They work, they all work,” said one law-enforcement official.
