The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - BP Firearms shipping (in to MI)

bedbugbilly · June 3, 2013, 06:08 PM

The model I'm looking at is the Traditions .32 "Crockett Rifle" - BP only - a front stuffer.

I heard back from one supplier who really wasn't sure if they could ship to MI or not - asked me to find "some one in authority" that they could ask. They said they didn't know if there was a "tax" to ship to MI or not.

I can see to NY, NJ, CA but as far as I know, I have never heard of a restriction on shipping a BP firearm to the state of MI - regardless of how close we are to Canada.

We have to comply with FFL the same as any state. We are also required to get a "purchase permit" on a modern handgun (cartridge) . . but BP?

Hopefully someone can answer this as I can't see or find any restriction.

Thanks.
