What is required to transport a firearm through DC?

The firearm must be unloaded and locked in a container
An open carry permit
A special transportation license
Nothing, if you are passing straight through

The correct answer is: The firearm must be unloaded and locked in a container

When transporting a firearm through DC, it is required that the firearm is unloaded and locked in a container. This ensures the safety of everyone involved. Option B is incorrect because open carry is not allowed in DC. Option C is also incorrect as there is no such thing as a special transportation license for firearms in DC. Option D may seem like a possible answer, but it is actually incorrect because while it is legal to transport a firearm through DC, it must still be unloaded and locked in a container. Therefore, the only correct option is A.
