CPL holders will be notified that their license is approaching expiration by their county clerk between three to six months prior to the expiration of their current license. 4. Upon paying the renewal application and license fee of $115, the applicant will be issued a receipt. If renewed prior to expiration, this receipt, when carried with the expired license, shall serve as a valid CPL until the new license or notice of statutory disqualification is received. For the purposes of Michigan law, the receipt is considered to be part of the CPL until a renewal is issued or denied. 5. Possession of this receipt and expired CPL does not exempt the holder from the requirement to obtain a license to purchase a pistol or exempt a firearms dealer from running a background check prior to the sale of a pistol. 6.

Emergency CPL There are two instances when a county clerk may issue an Emergency CPL: 1. The individual has obtained a personal protection order issued under MCL 600.2950 or 600.2950a.

2. A county sheriff determines there is clear and convincing evidence to believe the safety of the applicant or the safety of a member of the applicant’s family or household is endangered by the applicant’s inability to immediately obtain a license to carry a concealed pistol. An applicant for an Emergency license must meet the state and federal requirement listed previously in this guide. An applicant for an Emergency license must complete a valid pistol training course and apply for a Standard CPL within ten business days after applying for the license. An Emergency license is valid for 45 days or until the county clerk issues a license or a notice of statutory disqualification, whichever occurs first. If the Emergency license applicant does not complete a valid pistol safety training course under section 5j and apply for a Standard license under section 5b within ten business days, the Emergency license will be invalid ten business days from date of application.

MCL 28.425o Anyone licensed to carry a concealed pistol from Michigan or another state shall not carry a concealed pistol in any of the prohibited premises, unless he or she is exempt under MCL 28.425o(5). For a complete list, please see: Prohibited Premises. Refer to Federal law for federally restricted areas. 2. Does my valid Concealed Pistol License allow me to carry a concealed pistol in a state park? Yes. MCL 324.504 states that the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR) shall not promulgate or enforce a rule that prohibits a CPL holder from carrying a pistol on property under the control of the DNR.

017

MCL 28.422 prohibits you from obtaining a License to Purchase a pistol if you have received notice of the PPO and had an opportunity for a hearing. If the judge included in the PPO that you are prohibited from owning or possessing firearms, then it would affect the firearms you already own. Other Weapons (Non-Pistols) 1. In Michigan, can I carry a self-defense spray in my car or on my person for protection? MCL 750.224d Yes, but only if it is either: · Not more than 35 grams of any combination of orthochlorobenzalmalononitrile and inert ingredients (CS gas); or · A solution containing not more than 10% oleoresin capsicum (pepper spray). 2. I recently purchased a double-edged survival knife. Does Michigan law allow me to carry this in my vehicle? MCL 750.227 No. A dagger, dirk, stiletto, or double-edged non-folding stabbing instrument of any length, or any other dangerous weapon, except a hunting knife adapted and carried as such, cannot be carried concealed on or about a person, or whether concealed or otherwise in any vehicle operated or occupied by the person, except in their own home, place of business or on other land possessed by the person. 3.
