What is a mandatory requirement before obtaining a firearm registration certificate in D.C.?

  1. Completing a firearms safety training course

  2. A recommendation letter from the police chief

  3. Passing a swimming test

  4. Owning a gun safe

The correct answer is: Completing a firearms safety training course

In order to obtain a firearm registration certificate in D.C., it is mandatory to complete a firearms safety training course. This is because the government wants to ensure that individuals who are obtaining a firearm are knowledgeable about how to properly handle and store the weapon. Option B, a recommendation letter from the police chief, may seem like a logical requirement, but it is not mandatory. Option C, passing a swimming test, has no relevance to owning a firearm. Option D, owning a gun safe, is important for safety purposes, but it is not a requirement for obtaining a firearm registration certificate.
