Weapons: licensing; age requirement for a concealed pistol license; modify. Amends sec. 5b of 1927 PA 372 (MCL 28.425b).
HB 4586 modifies Michigan's concealed pistol licensing law by lowering the minimum age requirement from 21 to 18 years old. The bill specifically amends Section 5b(7)(a) of the state's firearm licensing act (MCL 28.425b), which previously required applicants to be 21 or older. This change directly affects individuals aged 18-20 seeking concealed pistol licenses, allowing them to apply without needing a parent or guardian. The bill does not alter other requirements like background checks, training, or fees.
