Rules on Owning a handgun in MI?

I'd like to get into the sport pretty soon, seemslike michigan is more suited for firing that NY.


how old do you have to be
whats the deal with carrying it around (not likeit will be on me 24/7)

whats the deal with having it in your house and somoene robs your house and steals it
or is in you car and your car is stolen?


thanks

First of all you must obtain a permit to purchase a handgun. You have to be 21 years old to buy a new handgun or 18 to buy a used one. After you have passed a background check and are given the purchase permit, you have 10 days to go out and find yourself a gun. You then take the gun to the police station for inspection. You are now the proud owner of a handgun (god help us )

To carry the gun you have to be 21 years old, have no felony convictions, no record of domestic violence, and you have to pass a background check. If you do a search in Yahoo or something under Michigan Concealed Weapons laws you will find the rest of the answers.

alright I no the law pretty well but whats up with tha 21=new gun 18= used gun law. I mean really what purpose does it serve to have different ages for a handgun? As far as the law goes with the concelled handgun, I plan on getting one, as soon as some classes open up, but I noticed, they do make it kinda hard for some folks, I can't remember any offhand but there are some crazy ones in there, if I wasn't so lazy I would look them up

to get a carry permit in mich you also have to attend a course.

In the course it covers all the rules for deadly force.

...which costs something like $200, so add that to the price of whatever gun you want.
