In a resent ruling people with a CCW of which I am one can legal carry on federal park land. To extend that logic since DC is technically federal property shouldn’t I be allow to carry in DC?

Uh, no. The Bush Administration tried to change national park rules to use whatever the surrounding state’s rules are concerning concealed carry. The courts blocked this. Congress has by statute changed the rules so that national parks will use surrounding state rules about firearms possession–a much broader liberalization than the proposed Bush Administration change. This applied only to national parks and the surrounding state’s rules. It won’t help with DC, which has a discretionary carry permit system.
