ANY
AND ALL QUESTIONS
YOU MAY HAVE CONCERNING THE PROCESS FOR APPLYING FOR
A CONCEALED WEAPON PERMIT SHOULD BE REFERRED TO THE
MARQUETTE COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE.
If you are a resident of the City
of Negaunee and wish to obtain a Permit To Purchase
a handgun, come to the Negaunee Police Department with
your Michigan driver’s license. You must
be at least 18 years of age to apply for a permit to
purchase a handgun and the address on your driver's
license must be up-to-date with the Secretary of State.
Once
at the department, a copy of your license will be taken
and you will be given a basic pistol safety test to
complete. This test consists of several True/False questions
pertaining to general gun safety. A check of your criminal
history will also be conducted.
Barring any disqualifying information being revealed,
permits are generally issued the same day if you
apply during regular business hours (Monday through
Friday, 8:00am-4:00pm). Keep in mind that criminal
histories are faxed to our department by Central Dispatch
and could be delayed if they are handling higher priority
calls. Applications made after 3:30pm have the
greatest chance of being affected by this and your permit
could be delayed until the following business day.
If you apply afterhours, your permit should be ready
around 9am the following business day. There is no charge
for obtaining a Permit To Purchase.
Permits
To Purchase Information:
Once
you receive your Permit To Purchase, you must have it
notarized. This can be done in our office during regular
business hours.
After
your permit is notarized, you may take it to a dealer
or private party to purchase the handgun – keeping
in mind the permits are only valid for ten (10) days.
The Seller must provide and record in full (quadruplicate
form) the requested information pertaining to the handgun,
the seller and the transaction. Once this is completed,
the Seller will retain the Seller's Copy of the permit
for his/her own records. You will keep the copy marked
as PURCHASER COPY (retain for 30 days) and you are required
by law to either mail or deliver both the AGENCY COPY
and the MSP COPY to the Negaunee Police Department within
10 days of acquiring your firearm.
A
safety inspection is no longer required.
