I have heard that Wayne county takes longer than most, but they are faster than they used to be. Thereare laws in place to stop counties from delaying the permit for no reason. I would ask the question here: http://www.migunowners.org/forum/index.phpSomeone can give you an answer. Also someone on AR15.com may know. http://www.ar15.com/forums/forum.html?b=8&f=39

Keep in mind they are required to issue a temorary permit within 60 days by law.

HB No. 6337

(13) Subject to subsections (10) and (14), the concealed weapon licensing board shall issue or deny issuance of a license within 45 days after the concealed weapon licensing board receives the fingerprint comparison report provided under subsection (10). If the concealed weapon licensing board denies issuance of a license to carry a concealed pistol, the concealed weapon licensing board shall within 5 business days do both of the following:

(a) Inform the applicant in writing of the reasons for the denial. Information under this subdivision shall include all of the following:

(i) A statement of the specific and articulable facts supporting the denial.

(ii) Copies of any writings, photographs, records, or other documentary evidence upon which the denial is based.

(b) Inform the applicant in writing of his or her right to appeal the denial to the circuit court as provided in

section 5d.

(14) If the fingerprint comparison report is not received by the concealed weapon licensing board within 60 days after the fingerprint report is forwarded to the department of state police by the federal bureau of investigation, the concealed weapon licensing board shall issue a temporary license to carry a concealed pistol to the applicant if the applicant is otherwise qualified for a license. A temporary license issued under this section is valid for 180 days or until the concealed weapon licensing board receives the fingerprint comparison report provided under subsection (10) and issues or denies issuance of a license to carry a concealed pistol as otherwise provided under this act. Upon issuance or the denial of issuance of the license to carry a concealed pistol to an applicant who received a temporary license under this section, the applicant shall immediately surrender the temporary license to the concealed weapon licensing board that issued that temporary license.

From what I hear, 1-2 months

This is good for me to hear. I've been waiting on getting my CPL because I may be moving to Lansing area in the spring/summer and I know that wait times there are next to nothing. It's good to see that WaCo isn't taking nearly as long as they had been, I might just put in my application. As soon as I can find a whole saturday to spend taking the class that is.

Thanks for the info, but the idea on waiting was more that if I applied in WaCo now I might not get my permit until I'm already in lansing (based on some waiting times earlier in the year) and could have gotten it in Lansing already. It was more or less just a want to get the CPL the quickest and I now see that WaCo is the way to go.
