I'm bad at keeping up with stuff but with the new developments should I apply for the DC permit? Is it even worth it since most of DC is federal property?

"Worth it" is going to be all over the map. Even DC residents who never carry but own a register firearm gain some legal protections with a CCL. For one you don't need to have a reason to have a firearm outside, say in your car. In DC as it stands you need to show you are going to an activity. At 2am it is difficult to claim you are going to the range and even legal secured transport is a problem, whereas if you have carry the carry is your reason and valid 24/7. you gain protection if you have a piece of brass is secured if the cop feels your lock or case is not sufficient.Is it even worth it since most of DC is federal property?
DC could still win at SCOTUS, and this process could go on for a year or more. If a stay of the Circuit court order is granted, then the G&S requirement will remain in effect until this is decided.
I'm waiting until this is resolved.
Given DC's past history of resistance to the 2A. I'd wager they are going to ask SCOTUS to hear their appeal , and ask for a stay until SCOTUS decides to hear the case or not.
YMMV
ALWAYS the voice of reason.As I mentioned, I'm waiting until there is a final resolution. I applied for a MD permit after Woollard and was denied after the 4CA ruled.
You know the old fool me once saying.....
DC certifies it's own instructors. UT instructors without DC certification aren't much help to people requiring training.
Cert not filed: you get CCL it in ~90 days from now
I am waiting for George Lyon’s “GO!”
DC requires a 16 hour course taught by a DC certified instructors. If your MD instructor is DC certified, I'd ask. The MPDC chief can accept other training, but of course to the best of my knowledge, they have no list of what's accepted. A DD214 may also be used as proof of training if it contains proof of firearms training
PM Cypherpunk here on the forum. He is a DC and MD certified instructor.
Does George post on here?
