You can only have ammunition in the District that fits your registered gun. No mags over 10 rd and if you carry with one in the pipe you can only have 9 in the mag. Only one full mag reload worth of ammo carried on you for a total max of 20 rd. If you have a revolver max 12 rd. 6 in the gun, 6 for reload.
The bad guys don't have these limits and criminals legally don't have to register their guns (Haynes v. United States). Only honest people do.

Those rules sound absurd.

Particularly in light of the Seth Rich and Jack Burkman shootings

But I guess highly restricted carry is better than your bare hands.

I hope this situation improves over time. There is no reason the badguys should have the advantage over the good guys.
I did not know about the Haynes case. That is messed up on many different levels. To paraphrase: You broke a law, and that means you don't have to comply with another law which would reveal that you are a criminal breaking the law.
