    I wonder if a safe would be considered a "safety device"?

    Yes, it’s one of the specifically listed items.

    Hmm, interesting.

    (MCL 205.51 to 205.78) by adding section 4gg.
    THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:
    1. Sec. 4gg. (1) The sale of gun safety items is exempt from the
    2. tax imposed by this act.
    3. (2) As used in this section, "gun safety items" means gun
    4. locks, gun safes, ear and eye protection for gun shooting, and any
    5. other tangible personal property designed to promote the safe use
    6. or storage of guns.


    What's the catch? Line 5 seems to open this up to all sorts of things...Since tangible personal property includes equipment and supplies.
    Holsters? Belts? Range ammo? Hard cases?
    Reloading equipment/components? Safety items associated with personal reloading like exhaust vents? Alarm systems or security monitoring equipment for where you store your guns (residence)? Sprinkler systems (fire suppression)?

    I'm going to need 10 acres out of town to build my "safe" training facility too.

    Wouldn't a suppresser be considered hearing safety?
