Hi All,
This is my first post, so I hope I'm in the right location.
I'm a little confused on DC law when it comes to out-of-state registration. To give you a little background- my grandfather passed away and left me with a pair of handguns. He lived in CT & never registered them, kept them locked up for about 20 years or so.
Now that he's gone, we're not sure how to handle them. I live in DC, the guns are in CT. If I were to register them in Connecticut, it would take forever & I would need to go through firearms training classes. It's also complicated since he is no longer with us and my grandmother has them.
I know typically if they were registered in CT, I would need to "buy" them and have them transported here, register, etc. But since they were never registered & there's no record of them, whats the best plan of attack?
I took the DC online training video and am prepared to register them here, but will they require certain documentation from CT or bills or sale? Or is it just a simple thing like getting them to DC and registering them here for the first time?
What would you guys suggest I do?
