FAQ: Will I get into trouble if my lawfully carried pistol "prints" through my clothing?

Ask The Michigan Firearms Instructor

Q: Will I get into trouble if my lawfully carried pistol "prints" through my clothing?

A: Your handgun "printing" is not illegal in Michigan. My opinion is that if your gun is still visible while lawfully carried under your clothing, you should either choose more suitable attire or consider taking the "Open Carry Plunge," which is also legal in Michigan. Please consider taking a class before you attempt to Open Carry.

You are strongly encouraged to not only conduct your own independent research but to also consult with a competent and qualified attorney before acting upon any information in this article. Laws covering self-defense, lethal force, firearms, and the Michigan Concealed Pistol License and their enforcement are always subject to change due to laws being amended, politics conducted in the Prosecutor's Office, and election results at all levels of government. Ignorance of the law, legally speaking, is not a valid excuse for running afoul of it. The penalties and fines imposed upon violators of firearms related offenses are stiff and severe.
