What is required to transport a firearm through Washington D.C.?

  1. The firearm must be unloaded and locked

  2. A special transport permit

  3. Notification to local law enforcement

  4. Both A and B

The correct answer is: The firearm must be unloaded and locked

To transport a firearm through Washington D.C., it is required that the firearm must be unloaded and locked. This safety measure ensures that the firearm is not readily accessible and is therefore less likely to be involved in an unintended incident. While other measures such as a special transport permit or notification to local law enforcement may be required in some other jurisdictions, in Washington D.C., the key requirement is that the firearm must be unloaded and locked for transportation.
