To restore and protect the Second Amendment rights of residents and United States citizens who visit the District of Columbia by modernizing the District's firearm laws, eliminating prior restraints on acquisition and possession, establishing concealed constitutional carry, prohibiting feature-based firearm bans, and facilitating lawful purchases through Federally licensed dealers in neighboring States, and for other purposes.

This legislation aims to overhaul the firearm regulations of the District of Columbia by removing several existing restrictions on gun ownership and possession. It proposes to establish a constitutional carry system, which would allow eligible citizens and visitors to carry concealed firearms without a specific permit. Additionally, the bill seeks to eliminate prior restraints on acquiring firearms and would prohibit the District from enforcing bans on firearms based on specific physical features.

If enacted, the bill would also change how firearms are purchased by allowing individuals to facilitate lawful transactions through federally licensed dealers in neighboring states. By modernizing these laws, the proposal intends to align the District's regulations with a broader interpretation of Second Amendment rights. Because this is a standard bill, it would require approval from both chambers of Congress and the President's signature to become law.
