Hello everyone I am moving from the Seattle area to Michigan at least for the next couple of months. In Washington we have a very good group of active open carry members and I am hoping for another quality team. I just wanted to take a minute and introduce myself. I have been open carrying for five years with no truly negative encounters. While I do occasionally get a rude comment or cussed out by a citizen walking down the street overall I have been very fortunate. The only time I have ever been contacted by the police for open carry is when a officer thanked me for standing up for my rights.
I am brand new in general Traverse City area and am hoping for any local tips or advice. I do not have my Michigan CPL but I do have my Washington's and Utah. Once I claim residency and get my Michigan drivers license because I have already have a Utah CPL someone once told me all I have to do to get my Michigan CPL is pay the state fee but I do not know if that is true or not. Also how is the gun culture here? I thought Michigan was a open carry state but when I was flipping through a gun magazine it stated Michigan was not a open carry state so I do not know what to think. Any advise for general day to day living would be appreciated.
