Buying a .177 or larger rifled pellet pistol in Michigan

[clutch]

Is there anyone up on current law? I *thought* air guns was fixed a while back in the legislature but it doesn't seem so.

I want to buy a rifled .177 pellet pistol, I have a Michigan CWP which should oblivate the permit to purchase but will that work for mail order sales if I send the seller a copy?

Thanks,

The best I can say is call the place you are buying from. It should not be a problem but some places are more worried then others about this kind of thing.
I asked my professor in my Law Enforcement class who is a Michigan State Trooper (I live in Morrice MI) and he gave me this. "According to Michigan law Sec. 222. As used in this chapter: (b) "Firearm" means a weapon from which a dangerous projectile may be propelled by an explosive, or by gas or air. Firearm does not include a smooth bore rifle or handgun designed and manufactured exclusively for propelling by a spring, or by gas or air, Bb's not exceeding .177 caliber"

I tried ordering a 1377 online shipped to a Walmart where I work. We will see how that works out.

I also sent emails to my state senator and member of the state house asking them to get rid of this stupidity.

Chalk that up with dehydrated water, profligate frugality, jumbo shrimp, teetoataling lushes, and ethical politicians.
