A fine of $1,000

Up to 1 year in prison

Community service

Up to 5 years in prison

Carrying a pistol without a license in DC is a serious offense and can result in penalties of up to 5 years in prison. Option A, a fine of $1,000, may also be a penalty, but it is likely to be in addition to a prison sentence. Option B, up to 1 year in prison, is incorrect because it does not match the severity of the offense. Option C, community service, is also an incorrect response as it is not a typical penalty for this particular crime. Therefore, the correct answer is D.
