Can non-residents carry a concealed firearm in DC with a valid permit from another state?

Yes, without restrictions
No
Yes, but they must also obtain a DC permit
Yes, in certain designated areas only

The correct answer is: No

Non-residents are not allowed to carry a concealed firearm in DC with a valid permit from another state. DC has strict regulations regarding the carrying of concealed firearms, and as such, non-residents must adhere to the laws of the District of Columbia, which do not recognize out-of-state permits for concealed carry. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because DC does not allow non-residents to carry a concealed firearm in the district, even with a valid permit from another state.
