What type of ammunition is prohibited from use in a pistol when carrying under a Michigan CPL?

  1. Hollow-point bullets

  2. Armor-piercing rounds

  3. Handloaded ammunition

  4. Full metal jacket rounds

The correct answer is: Armor-piercing rounds

This is because armor-piercing rounds are specifically designed to penetrate armor and cause maximum damage, making them inappropriate for use in a pistol carried for self-defense. The other options, while potentially dangerous, do not possess the same level of potential harm and are therefore not prohibited. Hollow-point bullets are designed to expand upon impact and are often preferred for self-defense as they are less likely to penetrate through a target and harm bystanders. Handloaded ammunition is simply homemade ammunition and may malfunction if not properly made. Full metal jacket rounds are standard ammunition and are typically used for target practice.
