Straight Wall Rifle Cartridges in Southern Michigan

A bill that would allow .35 caliber or larger straight-wall cartridges with a minimum case length of 1.16 to a maximum of 1.8 inches is on the move after being voted out of committee.  House bill 5249 sponsored by State Representative Matt Lori of District 59 is evidence that common sense is alive and well.

The bill now moves to the House floor, where it is expected to pass.  Then onto the Senate’s committee and to the Senate, along with any amendments to be negotiated.

I have it on good word that the bill should fly through the House.

Stand Your Ground Challenged in Michigan
