I forget if I asked you this yet in the other thread, but do you have a C&R FFL yet?
Also, for anyone living in DC, a C&R FFL is a good way to get C&R handguns in DC without having to pay the $125 transfer fee the one FFL charges.
Are you a DC resident?

I have no car, but when I could I used to shoot at MD Small Arms too.
Lately I have just been shooting at Myrtle Grove in La Plata with members, or at the MDShooters shoots on the Eastern Shore.

I was at MSAR last Saturday, and had to wait 30 minutes to get help because of the large number of DC residents buying handguns. I witnessed at least 6 DC residents complete the paperwork and pay for a handgun, but I'm sure there were a lot more. That is a good sign, and I hope the residents of the District arm themselves to the teeth.

Thanks for both of these. DC's "may issue," huh? Given how tight they are about even driving your gun to the range (in your trunk, in a locked case, unloaded, etc., etc.), I can't imagine them giving out carry permits. I'll ask the next time I visit the police ... I'm looking at buying and registering a pump shotgun. I assume I can bring that home from Atlantic Guns without going through the FFL the way I had to do with the Glock, but I guess I'm gonna find out.
I asked the sergeant of the firearms section about how many people had a handgun carry permit. He only remembers there being just one ever. YOu have to ask teh chief of police for the permit, there is no form or application from what I understand.
About buying your pump shotgun, you do not have to go through the DC FFL for the long gun purchase and you can bring it home from the MD FFL, but you have to get pre-approval from the DC police first.
THey lay out the registration process on their websight now.

I just sent my C&R off today because I thought it would be cool to have and the discounts. No other reasons really.
I have been procrastination buying any handguns because I fundamentally do not agree with the DC policy not to include MD or VA FFLs on their roster thereby creating a monopoly for Sikes.
THEN the penny dropped this afternoon while reading one your earlier posts. If I had a C&R the problem is resolved! All I have to do now is write my shopping list and wait. I do not know why I did not figure this out earlier, I have been thinking about a way around the fee for years.
Your post saved me $100s of dollars! Thanks.

How can I purchase a C&R (pistol) from a DC resident? How do I do the actual transfer? I am sure that they have restrictions on mailing; is a face to face OK or am I putting myself in a bad position transporting it out of DC from the point of transfer? Can't transfer in MD because then it is a regulated transfer that has to go through the MSP...
My sidewalk is DC, my condo is MD.
I can open my window, chuck out a loogie, and watch it land in Marion-Barry-Land.

Meet them in Northern VA for lunch, That is if you have your C&R. From your question I assume you do. Make sure to get a copy of their drivers lic or gov issued photo ID with address for your records. Mdeng

Dont live in DC, but work here. Take the Train/metro everyday. Everything about this city contributes to my loss of faith in humanity. Every problem our country has, is exemplified in this forsaken city.
