Gun Control Reform Activism

bob clark: No CC. Heller was about possession (all handguns not registered before 1976 were illegal, everything had to be locked up and disassembled at all times, etc.), not carry.

Evidently DC changed from 'may issue' to prohibited somewhere recently(?), ironically somehow in spite of heller? I can't find the old 'may issue' law but found this link which supports what I say:
1981 May Issue: .... 28 states and Washington D.C.

You are wrong within your parens. Rifles & Shotguns in DC had to be EITHER locked up or trigger locked, OR partially disassembled so that longgun could not be quickly fired. They could be assembled for taking to target range ( think) or for other legal use, which would preclude 'at all times'.

Also, D.C. doesn't recognize out of state permits, like one issued in Texas.

Yes, I came across that, not surprised.

Not that the guy had a handgun to start with, so the entire discussion is pretty pointless.

Not really, tho I originally said you were 'not wrong', and then my contention that DC was may issue is outdated, but then you were wrong about disassembly & lockup of longguns. A push.
