I checked MI law regarding possession of a shotgun in a motor vehicle. It says:
"In order to transport or possess rifles and shotguns in a motor vehicle, Michigan law requires that they be unloaded and be one or more of the following: broken down, enclosed in a case, carried in the trunk of the vehicle, or inaccessible from the interior of the vehicle."
I drive an SUV so I have no trunk and only have interior. I have a Mossberg 500 in a scabbard, but I wonder if that constitutes as a case? It's not 100% enclosed (if that even matters), but there is a retention strap. Any advice on the subject?
