Prosecutors claim that Reffitt transported two guns, an AR-15 and a Smith & Wesson, to Washington, D.C., even though Reffitt’s lawyer argues that there’s no evidence whatsoever that Reffitt was armed at the Capitol.

The precedent doesn't apply here because Reffitt possessed banned firearms in the District of Columbia, whether or not he had them at the Capitol.

Sounds like possessing banned firearms in the District of Columbia is not the charge, though.

"Guy Reffitt has been charged under the firearm provision of the rioting statute"
