GOP lawmakers introduce constitutional carry bills

Legislation removes requirement for government permit

Legislation enabling law-abiding citizens to carry concealed weapons for self-protection without possessing a government-issued permit to do so was introduced today by four House Republicans.

House Bills 5301-5304 were introduced by state Reps. Tom Barrett, R-Potterville; Lee Chatfield, R-Levering;Triston Cole, R-Mancelona; and Jim Runestad, R-White Lake.

The bill sponsors say the legislation allows more freedom for responsible citizens who want to carry a concealed weapon for self-defense. Penalties for the unlawful possession of a firearm will remain in place, and people who are currently not legally allowed to carry a firearm will not legally be able to carry a concealed weapon.

Rep. Runestad, sponsor of HB 5303, said the requirements Michigan places on lawful gun owners to carry a concealed weapon are unnecessary. Read more

Suppressors Legal for Hunting in Michigan

Written by ASA Comments

The initial proposal included two arbitrary restrictions which would have limited the decibel reduction of suppressors allowed in the field to 30 dB, and would have also prohibited the use of subsonic ammunition by anyone using a suppressor while hunting.
