I just got an email asking this:
I understand that the Washington, DC " elitobots" have recently expanded the list of acceptable guns. Do you know where one may find access to this list?Here's my response. As you can see, it's more of a guess than a statement of authority. If anyone can give a more precise answer, please educate us all:
It sounds like this is what you're asking about. In terms of a "list," it sounds like a bit of chasing around is needed:Please weigh in if you have something to add."In addition to permitting guns in the District that are legal in California, the city will also allow residents to apply to register handguns that are permissible in Massachusetts and Maryland."I'm sure there is some overlap in the various lists.
Here's where you would start for CA:
http://certguns.doj.ca.gov/
MD:
http://www.mdsp.org/services/handgun.asp
and MA:
http://www.mass.gov/Eeops/docs/chsb/firearms/Approved%20Firearms%20Roster%2004-2009.pdf
Note I have not had time to give any of these sites more than a cursory glance and am unlikely to dig much deeper. It could well be that DC has developed a comprehensive list that takes care of the work for you, and I'm just unaware of how to find it.
I doubt they have, but it could be. In any case, this is the best I'm likely to be able to do for you. My suggestion would be to call NRA if you need more info.
