Gun Rights Champion Dick Heller Sues DC Again, This Time Over Ammo Limits
In the wake of the recent USSC decision, this seems like a probable win, but I don't expect it to be quick.This new lawsuit (pdf) argues that a D.C. regulation preventing holders of concealed pistol carry licenses from carrying more than 20 rounds of ammunition at a time is unconstitutional. Such a limit violates the U.S. Constitution, the lawsuit claims, because there is no historical precedent for it, and it interferes with the right of a concealed carrier to properly use a firearm for self-defense in any public confrontations that may arise.
