Residents of Michigan may purchase anything on our site except for pellet guns measuring 30 inches or less (overall length). These guns are regulated by Michigan as firearms and require a concealed gun permit or a Michigan state license to purchase a pistol. Blank guns, guns with unrifled barrels and airsoft guns are NOT included in this restriction regardless of length. They may be purchased without any permit or license.
Michigan residents may purchase airguns that require state permits or licenses by following these steps:
1. Inform Pyramyd Air of the item you want to purchase.
2. The item will be shipped to the designated dealer/retailer in your area. You must find a participating dealer/retailer and let us know where to ship your gun.
3. Go to your local police department and obtain a permit to purchase the airgun. Each airgun purchase must have a separate permit.
4. After the permit is issued to you by the police, take it to the gun store where your gun was shipped.
5. After the permit is presented to the store and their fee is paid, they will give you the airgun.
6. Take the airgun back to the police department for a safety check and ballistics test.
7. After the tests are conducted and they determine that the airgun is safe, you
can take the airgun home.
