[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you actually have another option. The transfer process through MPD only applies to *handguns*, not long guns.

As a DC resident, you can purchase a non-regulated (in DC) long gun such as a rifle or shotgun, from a dealer in Virginia or Maryland. You can legally buy this long gun from a dealer there, and bring it home to DC.

Not all types of long guns are permitted in DC, so the best way to do this is to purchase from a dealer who is very familiar with the DC laws.

Best answer would be to go to Atlantic Guns in Silver Spring, just outside DC. They are very knowledgeable of DC gun laws, and understand what you’re able to own as a DC resident. They will walk you through the process.

A pump action shotgun is a very effective home defense gun, absolutely as useful as a handgun, and much easier to obtain and legally own in DC.

Good luck. Post back if you have any other questions.
