A SUMMARY OF HOUSE BILL 4977 AS INTRODUCED 6-21-05

House Bill 4977 would amend Public Act 372 of 1927, which concerns the regulation of firearms, to specify that the expiration date of a concerned weapons permit would fall on a person's date of birth.

Currently under the law, a license to carry a concealed pistol issued before July 1, 2003 is valid for three years, and a license to carry a concealed pistol issued on or after July 1, 2003 is valid for five years.  House Bill 4977 would retain this provision but specify that a permit is to be valid until the applicant's date of birth that occurs not less than five nor more than six years after the license was issued.

MCL 28.425l

FISCAL IMPACT:

The bill would have an indeterminate fiscal impact.
