President Donald Trump’s sweeping law-and-order crackdown in Washington, D.C., is delivering results for law-abiding residents who want the right to protect themselves.

The president’s Making D.C. Safe and Beautiful Task Force has cut concealed carry and firearm registration wait times from months down to just days without changing the city’s strict gun laws, Slay News reported.

The task force was created through Trump’s March executive order to revitalize the capital and worked directly with local officials to streamline the District’s firearms process.

“President Trump is not only stopping violent crime in Washington, D.C., he is also streamlining the permitting process for law-abiding residents who want the ability to protect themselves and their families,” White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers said in a statement.

“The Making D.C. Safe and Beautiful Task Force has been working with local officials to eliminate longstanding obstacles and successfully reduced the average permit processing time from several months to just five days,” she added.

Under the new system, D.C. residents can now book next-day appointments with the Metropolitan Police Department to register firearms, with walk-ins available and posted online.

A White House official confirmed that just months ago the average wait for an appointment was four months. But now, the concealed carry process has also been overhauled. What once took months now takes an average of 4.6 days, according to May task force data.

To reduce confusion, the registration and concealed carry application categories have been merged, and fingerprinting has been expanded through third-party vendors after City Council approval on July 28.

Washington still maintains some of the most restrictive gun laws in the country, including bans on most semi-automatic rifles, ammunition restrictions, and an extensive network of gun-free zones covering government buildings, memorials, schools, hospitals, stadiums, and businesses that sell alcohol.

Concealed carry permits must be renewed every two years, and applicants are still required to pass a firearms training course.

The MPD lists several disqualifications, including refusing fingerprinting or photography, failing to pay fees, or attempting to register prohibited firearms such as short-barreled shotguns or so-called “assault weapons.”

The task force is also studying expanded carry rights, including allowing female permit holders to carry in handbags, permitting concealed carry on public transit, and recognizing out-of-state permits — all of which would require City Council approval.

The task force includes members from the Department of the Interior, Department of Homeland Security, FBI, ATF, and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for D.C.

The US military is reportedly prepared to deploy hundreds of National Guard troops to Washington, DC, as part of President Trump’s broad federal assault on crime in the nation’s capital.

Trump has not yet made a final decision on whether to activate federal soldiers, but the National Guard is ready to deploy, according to two US officials familiar with the operation.

The preparedness comes as 120 FBI agents from throughout the country have already begun patrolling DC streets overnight and assisting local officers in carjacking hotspots, even though many lack local patrol training, according to the Washington Post.

“Be prepared! There will be no ‘MR. NICE GUY.’ We want our Capital BACK,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social ahead of a planned White House press conference on Monday morning about the city’s cleanliness and general condition.

The probable directive follows Trump’s March 28 executive order “Making the District of Columbia Safe and Beautiful,” which formed a task force to combat crime and reduce illegal immigration in the city.

“The Homeless have to move out, IMMEDIATELY. We will give you places to stay, but FAR from the Capital. The Criminals, you don’t have to move out. We’re going to put you in jail where you belong,” Trump wrote in the social media post — comparing the action to his illegal immigration crackdown at the border.
