Another Win for Dick Heller: DC Repeals Limit on Rounds Carried by Permit Holders - The Truth About Guns

&#9664Previous Post Next Post▶ Dick Heller has been a persistent thorn in the side of District of Columbia’s anti-gun government and police department for well over a decade and good on him for it. The 2008 decision in Heller v. DC is a Supreme Court landmark that clarified, finally, that the...

Only a matter of time until the 10 Round Magazine Limit for DC and the prohibition of carrying on Metro in DC are repealed as well.

If I had to guess, I think the Magazine Limit will be repealed first and not that long from now.

The attorney who brought the suit (George Lyon) on the 20 Round Limit was actually interviewed on WMAL earlier this morning by Larry O'Connor.

It's hard to believe that the round limit used to be whatever filled your gun to a maximum of a 10 round magazine, and the "improvement" was 20 rounds.

Great job George and good luck on your other pending cases!

The WMAL interview was interesting. I had to laugh at Larry O'Connor making the mistake of thinking that magazines larger than 10 rounds could be carried if they were only loaded with 10 bullets. Fortunately, George Lyon promptly corrected him. The mag size limit needs to go. I curse DC every time I have to go there and swap out my mags. The interview can be found on the O'Connor & Company podcast.

I have spoken to George in the past concerning the DC permit process, nice guy!

Indeed! That was a good catch by George.
Hopefully it happens soon. George filed a lawsuit on this back in early August:

So what is supposed to happen within a week? Is the ban on mags that hold over 10 rounds being challenged now?

I believe that's the HANSON case, still pending, https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/64859793/hanson-v-district-of-columbia/

This case is number of reloads, rather than mag capacity. The one the District agreed to settle before trial. It seems the STAY has to be extended another week.

Thanks. So, basically just waiting for the current status of no limit on number of mags/reloads to become permanent?

Supposedly Chief Contee has decided DC FFls can no longer pin magazines and that you can only carry magazines that were "designed" to hold only 10 rounds.

Which to me is troubling because most of my mags are factory "altered" to hold 10 rounds not MFG designed to hold 10 rounds.

Don't really want to get into semantics games with MPD or prosecutors.

Now I'm jealous, I thought that I was the only one that the USPS screwed like that.

So does that mean you can't have one with the pistol when you transfer it, or you can't posses one in the district at all, ever?
