Weapons: other; sale of weapons to individual under 21 years of age; prohibit. Amends secs. 223, 234f & 237a of 1931 PA 328 (MCL 750.223 et seq.).
This bill prohibits the sale of firearms to individuals under 21 years of age in Michigan, raising the current legal age limit from 18. It applies to sellers who knowingly sell guns to minors and increases penalties for repeat violations from misdemeanors to felonies. The legislation also updates existing laws regarding who can legally possess firearms in public and strengthens restrictions on carrying weapons in school zones. These changes directly affect gun dealers, firearm owners, and law enforcement by establishing clearer age limits and enforcement consequences.
