So what does this mean if you were to sell to another member on MGO?, do you have to go through a FFL?
I don't think the purchase permit part is accurate?
Referencing House Bill #4138 (and Senate Bill #076 too, for that matter):
Section 2a(1)(a) still exists, as far as I can see - this is the exemption for CPL holders regarding purchase permits. It just now applies to all firearms, not just pistols.
Section 5b (as referenced in Section 2a(1)(a)) also still exists, unchanged.
Combined with Section 12(1)(f) - the out of state CPL holder clause - pretty much everything a CPL holder can currently do regarding pistol sales/purchases remains unchanged...but would also apply to long guns if passed. Again..."as far as I can see."
Please set me straight if I am misreading something.
((This is from the "As Passed House, March 8 (and March 16 for SB 76)" versions, btw...))
I have the same problem, I get caught up in the legal "if, or, unless...ect) Think about how LEO will be interpreting.
I am waiting for one of these new laws to totally screw up Mi hunting. the 10 year old holding the rifle they shot a deer with for the the FP or even DNR post, will they have to go after that parent? How about loaning a deer rifle to a family member? can a 12-18 year even have a gun to hunt with?

Your post brought the following to my mind:
“Did you really think we want those laws observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We want them to be broken. You'd better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against... We're after power and we mean it... There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted – and you create a nation of law-breakers – and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with.”
