Are high capacity magazines allowed in Washington D.C?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only for certain types of firearms

  4. Yes, but only for law enforcement officers

The correct answer is: No

In Washington D.C., high capacity magazines are not allowed. The district has strict gun laws that prohibit the possession of magazines with a capacity higher than a certain specified limit. Therefore, option B is the correct answer. Option A is incorrect because high capacity magazines are not allowed in Washington D.C. Option C is not entirely accurate as there are no exceptions for certain types of firearms when it comes to high capacity magazines in the district. Option D is incorrect as well since high capacity magazines are generally not permitted for civilians in Washington D.C., even if they are law enforcement officers.
