Yes you would have 10 days to register, there is a Bill in the house to repeal this law.

It is called an inspection certificate and not a registration. Has been around for a long time, (I have one from my grandfather from 1927) Bay county does not charge a fee for this. There is proposed legislation in Lansing to eliminated this. Contact your state legislators and let them know how you feel!!! Do it now!!

The single thing that I don't miss about PA is registering my handgun sales with the State Police.

You don't need a notary for the safety inspection, just for the purchase permit. If you have a CPL you don't need the purchase permit.

My local LE doesn't charge any notary fees and openly criticizes the sheriff's department that does. It's like Super Troopers. The village PD and sheriff department hate each other.

Senate Committee Votes to eliminate 'Safety Inspection' Requirement
Legislative Update By David Felbeck, MCRGO's Legislative Analyst

On June 10th the Senate Judiciary Committee voted unanimously to recommend the passage of SB 370 and SB 371. These bills, in conjunction with HB 4490 and HB 4491, which have already been passed by the House, will eliminate the requirement that any pistol purchaser must have the pistol "safety inspected" by the local police within ten days of purchase.

SB 370 was sponsored by Senator Richardville, and SB 371 by Senator Cropsey. About twelve people, excluding the Committee and staff, were present. Following an explanation of the bills by a representative of Senator Richardville, MCRGO's legislative analyst briefly described the difficulties under present law faced by a pistol purchaser and made a plea not only for passage of the current bills but for complete elimination of the pistol purchase permit as well. No one else testified, either for or against these bills.

When these bills and the companion bills are passed by both houses, and the governor signs them, prospective purchasers of pistols will still have to obtain purchase permits from their local law enforcement office. CPL licensees, as is currently the case, will not be required to obtain purchase permits.

Committee members supporting both bills were Senators Kuipers (chairman), Cropsey, Whitmer, Clarke, and Pruse. Senators Sanborn and Patterson were not present.

The bills now go to the full Senate for action.
