Are high capacity magazines (over 10 rounds) permitted in D.C.?

  1. Yes, for all firearms

  2. No, they are prohibited

  3. Yes, but only for law enforcement

  4. Yes, but registration is required

The correct answer is: No, they are prohibited

High capacity magazines (those holding more than 10 rounds) are prohibited in Washington D.C. This restriction aims to promote public safety by limiting the number of rounds a firearm can hold, making it more difficult for shooters to cause mass casualties in a short period of time. It is essential to understand and adhere to this regulation to comply with D.C. gun laws.
