Washington DC Carry Permits Skyrocket After Dismissal of 'Good Cause'

Washington, DC, concealed carry permits are skyrocketing following the dismissal of the District’s “good cause” restriction for permit issuance.

On July 25, 2017, Breitbart News reported that the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia ruled that D.C.’s “good reason” requirement for concealed carry permit issuance is unconstitutional. The ruling was handed down in Wrenn v. District of Columbia.

According to the Daily Caller, the District’s “Metropolitan Police Department confirmed … Tuesday that 1,896 concealed carry permits were issued by MPD for the calendar year to date 2018.” That represents a “1,440 percent” jump in the number of permits which were issued while the “good cause” restriction was in place.

The door is now open to rid Maryland of its "good and substantial cause" requirement.

All it takes is a man willing to take it far enough in maryland. This person was willing to in DC. The basis for ruling is established showing maryland is outside of what is reasonable.

That is the same as MD. Does this mean / apply to MD concealed carry permits? Hogan promised during his first election he would address this matter and then showed he was just another no backbone / no balls Republican. Waiting to see if he has grown a set this go round. He has his armed security 24/7. My Family deserves the same privilege without having to mortgage the house and jump through hoops.

As an "ENDOWMENT" member card carrying NRA member, I will gladly be on a Lawsuit against the State of Maryland. Just let me know where to go and sign.
