The Post caught Dick Heller, original plaintiff in the U.S. Supreme Court court case that eventually made it legal for D.C. residents to own handguns for personal security, picking up his handgun registration certificate this morning.

Heller, a security guard, may now legally keep the gun he registered in his home, though it has to be locked up and unloaded under the current law. He also recently filed another lawsuit arguing that the District’s registration process is unduly “onerous,” and that the rules regarding when a gun can be legally loaded and prohibiting the ownership of semiautomatic weapons do not comply with the Supreme Court ruling.
