We must be aware that different states have different laws. In Michigan, You can not legally take a pistol to a firing range, hunting and so forth without having a permit for that pistol in your possession. Also, there are differences between a dealers license and a C&R. A dealer may get a special form that will allow him to buy a pistol from a Michigan resident without a permit and the form does not have any date limitations on it. A C&R holder must get a purchase permit before buying a pistol from a Michigan resident and the permit is good for only ten days. Getting a purchase permit varies from city to city and can range from standing at the counter for someone to type it to 30 days for the chief of police to approve it. You may leave the permit at the police station for 30 days before it is invalid. The 10 day time limit begans when you take it from the police station.

A Michigan C&R holder can buy a pistol from a resident of another state without a purchase permit. But a puchase permit is required when he gets the gun to Michigan. No background check is required from a C&R holder. But dealers are required to get a background check. But background checks are automatically done when we apply for a purchase permit.

My arguement with my fellow C&R buddies is, I buy a pistol in another state with my C&R and I log it in my book. I then get a pistol permit in Michigan for that gun. Then I sell that pistol to another Michigander who does not have a FFL but does have a Michigan pistol purchase permit. Do I have to log that sale in my FFL book?
