OP - Have you registered any of your guns with them yet? If so, what was that process like? View Quote No, because I don't live there. I'll see what the they say in the law course, but I do not think you have to register firearms there if you don't live there. I don't know tho. Leave it to that dipshit district to also require you to register whatever firearm you carry. I'll be sure to ask in the class. |

I would think, as in the post above I quoted they accept retired LEO credentials in lieu of training. However the DC law class is required of everyone, no matter what. |

Im glad I no longer have any business up that way, but if I did I would be all over it. Hell if it wasnt a pain to take the class I would do it anyway. A DC CWP will be a collector's item eventually. View Quote Perhaps. Maybe once they crack down again I'll autograph mine, frame it and sell it in EE for a mint |

I'm pretty sure you need to register any handgun that you plan to possess in DC. You get one freebie with your carry permit application. It has to be 10 or fewer rounds and be on the CA, MA or MD "approved" list. |

Since open carry is prohibited wouldn't denying out of state applicants be a violation of equal protection for their right to carry? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Wait - I thought you had to be a DC resident. Can someone living in VA apply? That would be awesome! Since open carry is prohibited wouldn't denying out of state applicants be a violation of equal protection for their right to carry? Like DC gives a shit about that. The only reason they're issuing permits to ANYONE is because they've been taken behind the woodshed several times by a federal judge recently. |

Would passing through DC be reason enough for the following?
District of Columbia law requires you to demonstrate either that: (1) you have good reason to fear injury to yourself or your property; or (2) you have another proper reason for carrying a concealed pistol. Demonstration of Good Reason to Fear Injury to Person or Property To demonstrate a good reason to fear injury to yourself, you must: ?? Show a special need for self-protection distinguishable from the general community, as supported by evidence of specific threats or previous attacks which demonstrate a special danger to your life. ?? Allege serious threats of death or serious bodily harm, any attacks on yourself, or any theft of property from your person. ?? Allege that the threats are of a nature that the legal possession of a pistol is necessary as a reasonable precaution against the apprehended danger. ?? Provide all evidence of contemporaneous reports to the police of such threats or attacks, and disclose whether or not you made a sworn complaint to the police or the courts of the District of Columbia concerning any threat or attack. Pursuant to District of Columbia law, the fact that you live or work in a high crime area shall not by itself establish a good reason to fear injury to yourself or your property for the issuance of a concealed carry license. You can also include any supporting statements from third parties, but the statements must be made under oath and before a notary. Demonstration of Other Proper Reason for a Concealed Carry License This may include: (1) employment of a type that requires the handling of large amounts of cash or other highly valuable objects that must be transported on your person; or (2) the need for you to provide protection of a family member who is physically or mentally incapacitated to a point where that family member cannot act in defense of himself or herself, or his or her property. You can include any documents (such as police reports or court documents) and/or personal statements to demonstrate that you have a proper reason to be issued a Concealed Carry License. View Quote |

If you get your DC CCW, just remember that there are a whole shitload of places that you cannot carry.

To answer your question.....yes it would. But all that is irrelevant as of right now. Those requirements are not needed while under appeal, because ya know.....that pesky 2nd amendment. |

Meanwhile, in the people's republic of new jerseystan....
Shitshow still continuing, no end in sight. And even if we could carry, the hollowpoint laws would have us more or less limited to FMJ, powrball, etc. |

I would not feel undergunned if they were all I could carry legally. For that matter, I don't carry HPs at all in my pocket guns - .32ACP doesn't have enough energy to need them. Even up to .380 ACP or .38 Special, plain old "lead round nose" is almost certainly going to guarantee complete energy transfer. |

I never expected that DC would be better for CCW then a half dozen or so states.

It's a step in the right direction, but still seems like a lot of bs to go through to get a permit. Are most states really like that? Fingerprints, training, 2 hr class? I wish Md would get with the program.

The appeal responses are due next week.
