Challenges to the district of columbia’s gun laws under GOP Government Ladd Everitt Director One Pulse for America

Tough laws, but vulnerable Some of the toughest gun laws in the country: Licensing & Registration for all firearms Assault Weapons Ban 10-day waiting period Design safety standards for handguns One-Handgun-Per Month Reporting of lost and stolen firearms May-Issue: To get carry permit, one must “have a good reason to fear injury to his or her person or property.” Vulnerable to illegal gun trafficking from states with weak gun laws: 96% of DC’s crime guns come from an outside state. Virginia is top source state (by far). 1,609 guns recovered from crime scenes in 2015.
