Michigan: Husbands, wifes and "safety inspection" of pistols.

[enfield]

Never mind.

They do not charge for this "inspection" and yes it's really registration not safety inspection.

Yes they do -- or at least they do in Kent county. $5 per purchase permit or pistol registered. The city of Wyoming also did that to me when I got a couple of permits while living there.

Hmmmm

I have never been charged and I'm almost sure I read that they could no longer charge a fee. I can't find it at the moment written anywhere so I could be wrong on that.

I have never, ever been charged for a registration mad: ) permit.

Hate to tell you, but I'm not imaginging the charges. I could swear Wyoming did it to me too but that was years ago.

The Kent County Sheriff's department (both downtown Grand Rapids and the sub-station at 84th and Kalamazoo in SE GR are charging. I went in Tuesday and grabbed two of them: $10 bucks. If you purchase with a CCW (no permit at purchase time) you STILL have to pay them $5 for their trouble. It's posted right on the front doors and at the counter 'round here.

I tried paying with a $50 the last time and was informed that they couldn't make change for it. I had 9 other dollars on me so I had to dig around in my car for change to pay the whole $10. Frustrating.

They don't have to charge you, but they still can, and do.
