Yes:
Only the feds can have weapons (I think the body guard details of visiting presidents, etc.. can have weapons also) without restrictions or registration. Only the People who aren't feds/elites are banned from owning handguns and cartriages. They are allowed registered long arms but they have to be non-firing condition even at home.No person shall possess ammunition in the District of Columbia unless:
(1) He is a licensed dealer pursuant to subchapter IV;
(2) He is an officer, agent, or employee of the District of Columbia or the United States of America, on duty and acting within the scope of his duties when possessing such ammunition;
(3) He is the holder of the valid registration certificate for a firearm of the same gauge or caliber as the ammunition he possesses; except, that no such person shall possess restricted pistol bullets; or
(4) He holds an ammunition collector's certificate on September 24, 1976.
7-2501.01 Definitions
(2) "Ammunition" means cartridge cases, shells, projectiles (including shot), primers, bullets (including restricted pistol bullets), propellant powder, or other devices or materials designed, redesigned, or intended for use in a firearm or destructive device.
7-2507.06 Penalties
(1) A person who knowingly or intentionally sells, transfers, or distributes a firearm, destructive device, or ammunition to a person under 18 years of age shall be fined not more than $10,000 or imprisoned for not more than 10 years, or both.
This means that possession of even a single round of ammunition or a component, like a single bullet or fired cartridge case, including a dummy round, probably even including a novelty key chain made from a cartridge, is an equivalent violation to possessing an unregistered firearm.

Easy there Mtbiker, this guy isn't exactly a "star", more like a never was been. This story is about in line with everyday news in DC as far as I'm concerned. Just my 2cents.
