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 be conducted.
As this department does not have a LEIN terminal on
site, the check will be done at another location and
paperwork will be delivered to this department the following
business day. Because we are unable to view your
criminal history on the day it is requested, you cannot
receive a Permit To Purchase on the same day you come
to the department to ask for it. Barring any complications
from your criminal history, Permits To Purchase handguns
are generally ready during the morning hours of 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 the
back of the permit notarized. This can be done in our
office between the hours of 8:00am and 4:00pm, Monday
through Friday.
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.
Requirements
for CPL Holders
CPL
holders will still document pistol purchases on a Pistol
Sales Record. These forms have been updated to
a 4-part form and are available at the Negaunee Police
Department. After acquiring a handgun, CPL holders are
required to mail or deliver the AGENCY COPY and the
MSP COPY to the Negaunee Police Department
within 10 days of the transaction.
