What effect does alcohol or drug use have on a person's ability to carry a concealed pistol in Michigan?

No effect, as long as the person is not visibly impaired
It is illegal to carry a concealed pistol while under the influence of alcohol or drugs
Only illegal if the blood alcohol content is above .08%
Only illegal for hard drugs, not alcohol

The correct answer is: It is illegal to carry a concealed pistol while under the influence of alcohol or drugs

Carrying a concealed pistol while under the influence of alcohol or drugs is illegal in Michigan. It is important to note that not only being visibly impaired, but also having any amount of alcohol or drugs in one's system can result in charges for illegal possession of a concealed weapon. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they suggest that it may be legal to carry a concealed pistol while under the influence of drugs or alcohol, as long as certain conditions are met. This is not the case in Michigan. It is always illegal to carry a concealed pistol while under the influence, regardless of the level of impairment or the type of substance. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
