All DC residents should get a PA License to Carry Firearms by mail ASAP - no fingeprints or training required.
The PA LTCF is accepted by many or most states, including nearby Virginia, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina, and can most easily be obtained by mail from the Centre County Sheriff at http://www.co.centre.pa.us/sheriff/license_application.asp.
Where accepted by a state, the PA LTCF allows the holder to conceal a handgun. And for the few states requiring a license to also open carry a handgun, or sometimes to carry a handgun in a vehicle, the LTCF works there too.

The Attorneys General of neither Ohio nor Pennsylvania claim to have reciprocity with one another.

DC has a license to carry law similar to RI, and because of the licensing statute's existence, Denny Nau and any other sheriff will deny the application. Despite the color coding and incorrect information, DC is a "green" jurisdiction.
§ 22-4506. Issue of licenses to carry pistol.
The Chief of Police of the District of Columbia may, upon the application of any person having a bona fide residence or place of business within the District of Columbia or of any person having a bona fide residence or place of business within the United States and a license to carry a pistol concealed upon his or her person issued by the lawful authorities of any State or subdivision of the United States, issue a license to such person to carry a pistol within the District of Columbia for not more than 1 year from date of issue, if it appears that the applicant has good reason to fear injury to his or her person or property or has any other proper reason for carrying a pistol and that he or she is a suitable person to be so licensed. The license shall be in duplicate, in form to be prescribed by the Mayor of the District of Columbia and shall bear the name, address, description, photograph, and signature of the licensee and the reason given for desiring a license. The original thereof shall be delivered to the licensee, and the duplicate shall be retained by the Chief of Police of the District of Columbia and preserved in his or her office for 6 years.

Well, then I guess Virginia would be the next easiest mail order permit source - but really, does anyone know of anyone in DC denied a CHP by a PA Sheriff? Given the current ban on residents obtaining permit to own a gun, I don't see how any carry permit could be issued by DC.

If you read the statute it says if anyone lives outside DC and has a licence to conceal a pistol from another state they can get a DC permit. Theoretically at least.
If the US Congress really cared about the people of DC they would simply legislate directly for DC (as the US constitution gives Congress explicit right to do) a bill recognizing pistol ownership in the district along with requiring DC to grant shall issue permits. DC's bolshevik government be damned, they have no authority except that delegated by Congress.
But that's if they cared. The Congressmen use an underground tunnel system to go from their offices to the capitol and at the end of the day they retire, probably many in armored vehicles, to their gated communities.

Well, here's the situation: If you were lucky enough to register a pistol before the 1976 deadline, you could get a permit to carry it. There are also certain exemptions from the registration law, such as law enforcement officers, special police officers, etc etc etc.

I sent a message at the DCMP web page to "Ask the Chief" referencing 22-4506 and asking her to send me an application form so I could apply. Any bets on what response I receive?

Since I am only 19 and don't have a VA permit, I just sent in my application for a Maine non-resident permit. It is $60, but if anyone else between 18 and 21 wants to apply for a D.C. carry permit, they should get one from Maine.
The way I see it, once D.C. starts to reject all these carry permit applications we should be able to sue them for our right to bear arms.

VA Patriot has it right: when the corrupt powers in DC reject permits from other states, it is time to file a blizzard of lawsuits to accuse them of civil rights violations. When their civil courts are overwhelmed with such suits, their government will take expedient steps to clear the cases without generating a lot of nationwide scrutiny for denying Americans their constitutional rights protected by the SCOTUS. We'll have to be patient, but ultimately we will prevail, and the DC gov't already realizes this. They just hope some roadblocks will deter us from pursuing our rights. I hope they're wrong, because we can win this! (and make them eat @#$% in the process!)
Don't let the bastards grind you down!

Which one?
The one for Maine can be printed out from the Maine State Police website, but I believe you have to apply in person for the D.C. permit (I'm not 100% sure on that though).

| I now have a valid carry permit issued by the state of Maine, so I can now legally apply for a D.C. carry permit. Is anyone else still actually interested in going into D.C. to apply for carry permits from the Metropolitan police, or is the plan now to just keep waiting to see what will happen with the currently pending lawsuits and legislation?

They're changing the laws around again, I don't know if there's a specific plan anymore. It's possible that the way that they change the laws will moot the Heller II litigation, but since none of the proposed stuff touches the carry license law that may be another point of litigation, as I pointed out a year ago.

My application for a PA non-resident concealed carry permit was returned because I could not produce a DC permit a couple years ago, so I got the trifecta, Virginia, Utah, Florida permits.

Who told you you could not get a PA LTCF? DC does not issue carry permits to regular citizens, do they?
