Just want to introduce myself. Just got my CPL and have purchased my gun of choice so I figured I should hang with the rest of the smart people in Michigan!!

Lol, i agree. Questons?

None that I can think of at the moment. I'm still souring the forums for info and enjoying the posts. I'm still a bit sketchy on exactly where not to carry, but I do have a laminated card in my wallet from the class so it won't take me long to get acquainted with the carry free zones.


On edit: Yes, one question. Where do you enter a signature????

Welcome!

Might I humbly suggest that you carry a voice recorder and a trifold on your persons at all times just in case you run into a LEO who isnt up to speed on the firearm laws of this state.

go to the top of the page, click "settings" then go to the left of that page. You'll see it.

carry free zones with a CPL. MCL 28.425o

BTW, you can OC with a CPL in the gun free zones here.

Thanx for the info, but at the left of the page in the settings feature I can edit avatar, profile, blah blah blah, but nowhere is there a sig.


Im waiting on my cpl was wondering what county you applied in and how long it took?

Delta county 21 days. The gun board meets once per month so it's possiblt for the process to take much longer. I was lucky and finished the class 3 weeks before the board meeting.

P.S. Thanx for the welcomes!

Welcome Greg...

May I very strongly!!! suggest NOT open carrying until you are up to speed on all the laws and how those laws interact.

Folks here will try their best to answer any questions, and will provide cites and/or links to any laws mentioned for you to read the actual law itself, because...

Even the smallest screw up could have devastating consequences.... like prison and the loss of the ability to own/carry a gun for life.

No one here wants that to happen to anyone.

I agree fully. I don't plan to OC that often since I do have a cpl, but now and then on the really hot days I may not want to gun or holster rubbing my skin. I may carry it in a grocery store or while fueling the car, etc. I have no plans to OC on school grounds, court houses, hospitals, etc. Hopefuly, I'll have no reason to frequent these places. ;)

Thanx. I sent a PM. Also, is there a way to make this site remember my username and password? I've gotta sign in every time I stop in.

Yes, when you enter your username, and password, click on the little box that says "remember me", when the checkmark appears, just login. It will remember you next time. Someties your computer will ask you if you want it to remember your info for this site, check yes.
