California law does not apply to the jurisdiction of Washington DC.

In fact, the statutes in DC DO exempt Lugers because they are C&R, and for other guns, the District refers to the California list to determine if they are "safe". This, of course, severely restricts firearms that can be sold, and the size of magazines.
