Is there a waiting period to purchase a handgun in Washington D.C?

  1. No waiting period

  2. 3-day waiting period

  3. 10-day waiting period

The correct answer is: 10-day waiting period

This waiting period allows for thorough background checks to be completed and helps prevent impulsive firearm purchases.
