My initial, gut response and answer to my own question is that I should not risk taking my legally owned firearm on a trip which includes a few days stay, downtown DC.
I am going on a roadtrip this summer and part of the itinerary includes a few nights in DC. My big question is if I possess a firearm, even if disassembled and no ammo at the ready, can anyone advise if this is stillbreaking some obscure DC (anti-gun) law?
I live in Michigan and am a legal CPL license holder but I know that doens't work well in many locations. I am readily understanding the reciprocity laws of other states but am concerned about DC primarily.
From what I understand if the Interstate Firearms Trasportation laws, if I was merely passing through an "anti-gun state" and the firearm was not in my immediate possession (i.e. locked up in the trunk) I would have nothing to worry about.
Can anyone please offer any advice?
Thanks
