What Is A Weapons Charge?

In Michigan, it is illegal to carry a dangerous weapon or a firearm that is concealed on your person or in your vehicle without a permit. In addition, any number of crimes can turn into a weapons charge if a firearm is found during your arrest in connection with the crime. The sale, manufacture, distribution, or possession of a semiautomatic firearm that has been modified into a fully automatic firearm is also illegal under Michigan law.

What Happens If I Receive A Weapons Charge?

Weapons charges require a mandatory 2 years in prison to run consecutively with any other crimes charged in connection with the weapons charge. If you are charged for carrying a concealed firearm without a permit, that is a felony punishable by up to 5 years in prison and a $2,500 fine. You can also receive a weapons charge if you are legally carrying a concealed weapon with a permit and have a .02 BAC. If you are found carrying a semi-automatic that has been converted into an automatic firearm, that is a felony and punishable by up to four years in prison and up to a $2,000 fine.

Make sure you have a weapons charges attorney on your side to make sure none of this happens to you and you are treated fairly in the eyes of the law.
