    Found this on The High Road. No idea if it's legit.

    House Bill HR3689 Would Restore 2A Rights To DC Quote:
    Section 4 of the Act entitled ‘‘An Act to prohibit the killing of wild birds and wild animals in the District of Columbia’’, approved June 30, 1906 (34 Stat. 809; sec. 23 1–303.43, D.C. Official Code), is amended by adding at the end the following: ‘‘Nothing in this section or any other provision of law shall authorize, or shall be construed to permit, the Council, the Mayor, or any governmental or regulatory authority of the District of Columbia to prohibit, constructively prohibit, or unduly burden the ability of persons not prohibited from possessing firearms under Federal law from acquiring, possessing in their homes or businesses, transporting for legitimate purposes, or using for sporting, self-protection or other lawful purposes, any firearm neither prohibited by Federal law nor subject to the National Firearms Act. The District of Columbia shall not have authority to enact laws or regulations that discourage or eliminate the private ownership or use of firearms.
    The bill would also repeal the semi-auto ban, repeal registration requirement and authorize ammo sales, repeal the handgun ammunition ban, restore the right of self defense in the home and remove criminal penalties for possession of unregistered firearms.

    Declares that, in the case of a sale or transfer of a handgun to a District resident, a federally licensed importer, manufacturer, or dealer of firearms in Maryland or Virginia shall be treated as a dealer licensed under this Act if: (1) the transferee meets in person with the transferor to accomplish the transfer; and (2) the sale, delivery, and receipt fully comply with the legal conditions of sale in both the District and the jurisdiction in which the transfer occurs.

    Sounds like Maryland dealers will get very busy.
