No, it is not required
Yes, within 48 hours

The correct answer is: Yes, within 48 hours

Yes, residents in DC are required to report lost or stolen firearms within 48 hours. This requirement helps law enforcement track missing firearms and prevent them from being used in criminal activities. Therefore, option B is correct. Option A is incorrect because reporting lost or stolen firearms is indeed required in DC. Option C is incorrect as the correct timeframe for reporting is within 48 hours, not 24 hours. Option D is incorrect as reporting a lost or stolen firearm is a legal requirement, regardless of whether the firearm is used in a crime.
