To legally purchase a handgun in Michigan without a CPL, what is required?

  1. A background check

  2. A purchase permit from a local law enforcement agency

  3. Proof of Michigan residency

  4. Both A and B

The correct answer is: Both A and B

In order to legally purchase a handgun in Michigan without a CPL, both a background check and a purchase permit from a local law enforcement agency are required. This is because Michigan law requires all handgun purchasers to undergo a background check and obtain a purchase permit before completing the sale. The other options are incorrect because they do not fulfill both of these requirements. Option A, a background check, is necessary but does not fulfill the requirement for a purchase permit. Option B, a purchase permit, is necessary but does not fulfill the requirement for a background check. Option C, proof of Michigan residency, is not a requirement for purchasing a handgun without a CPL in Michigan. Therefore, the correct answer is D, as it covers both necessary requirements.
