Guns in DC -- no gun stores, but look who has a license

So, how does one lawfully get guns into DC? Even after Heller takes
effect, it's a tough issue due to zoning:

Washington has no federally licensed gun stores, so nowhere in the
city can residents buy a handgun legally.

Not true, really. There is one licensed firearms dealer in the city.
One Josh Sugarmann of the anti-gun shill group the Violence Policy
Center.

They can be reached at:

Violence Policy Center
1730 Rhode Island Avenue, NW
Suite 1014
Washington, DC 20036

phone (202) 822 8200

Ask them what they're charging for transfers. If they say they don't
do them, remind them that, thanks in part to their kind's lobbying
efforts, it is typically viewed a violation of federal law to hold an
FFL and not be in the business of dealing firearms.

I don't get it. Why would he have license? I'm sure it's some statement, but I'm missing hi message. Anyhow, STRING HIM UP!

What a wonderful business opportunity! The only problem is that the Mayor & his ilk will be doing EVERYTHING they can to prevent any dealers from opening up shop in DC.

Many, many FFL holders operate out of their homes and such in just about every other state. I wonder if it is the same in D.C.?

Not anymore IRRC. The ATF shut down that one under Clinton. Now you must have a commercial space to have an FFL..... which means that VPC is registered in ATF as a Gun Store.

I wonder if I should call Bloomberg and have this store checked.

I know an individual who got a FFL to operate out of his home within the last year. Now out here in the sticks, zoning is a tad different than a City like DC, but for all intents he operating in a residential area.
