Apparently, some District residents aren't waiting on the District Council and the Fenty administration to work out the specifics of how to modify the gun ban to comply to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling last week. Gun shops in Maryland and Virginia suburbs told The Washington Post's Allison Klein that they've gotten a number of inquiries from D.C. residents trying to buy hardware.

In related news, DC City Councilmember Phil Mendelson tomorrow will introduce legislation to repeal the ban while keeping the ban in place.

Apparently, the only FFL dealer in Washington DC is Joshua Sugarmann of the VPC. He’d better be willing to sell firearms, considering his organization’s push to get rid of kitchen table FFL dealers.
