I found a use for my HQL

[almiller1963]

After completing the live fire class for my Florida CCP I accidentally left my drivers license at the range. I went to the police station to get fingerprinted and they accepted my HQL as a photo ID.

And here I thought it was a waste of my time getting it......

I wish you needed one to vote

Just did my class for the Florida CWP (carry permit) the other day. The laws here are so much more sensible than the PRM's.

You can also use it as a coaster.

Some of the liberals where I work where all up in arms because CCW permits were accepted as ID to vote in some state.

The liberals here get all up in arms when someone suggests any ID to vote.

It's pretty thick, so you can't even pick your teeth with it.

I use mine to scrape the frost off my mirrors.

I was dreaming the other night about getting one.


And then I woke up and remembered I was in Indiana.

No they weren't, because then they would be hypocrites...

You mean you had a nightmare that you were in MD (and needed the HQL) and awoke to the dream come true of being somewhere else with your freedom still intact.

Little know use for the HQL

It allows for legal open carry (but not loaded vehicle carry) in Michigan by a Maryland resident. If you go to Detroit you might just need it. Michigan honors ZERO non-resident permits. Michigan only allows open carry for non-residents under certain circumstances one of which is for a person who has been issued a license to purchase a handgun by their state of residence. See the full bulletin for transport requirements.

See below or (bulletin is attached):

Out-of-state residents

Non-residents may legally possess a firearm
more than 30 inches in length in Michigan. In
order for a non-resident to possess a pistol in
Michigan, he or she must either be licensed to
carry a concealed pistol or be licensed by his or
her state of residence to purchase, carry, or
transport a pistol. The ownership of property in
Michigan does not qualify a non-resident to
possess a pistol in Michigan.

Non-resident concealed pistol possession

MCL 750.231a makes it legal for a non-resident
of Michigan with a valid CPL issued by his or her
state of residence to carry a concealed pistol in
Michigan as long as the pistol is carried in
conformance with any and all restrictions
appearing on the license. Individuals with out of
state CPLs are subject to Michigan laws that
govern Michigan CPL holders. As many states
issue CPLs to out of state residents, officers
should verify that the person actually resides in
the state that issued the license. If the person
does not reside in the state that issued the
license, Michigan does not recognize the CPL
and the person may not carry a concealed pistol
in Michigan.

Possession of pistols by non-residents

MCL 28.432 makes it legal for non-residents of
Michigan who hold valid CPLs issued by another
state to possess a non-concealed pistol in
Michigan without complying with Michigan’s
pistol registration requirements. Additionally,
MCL 28.422 exempts residents of other states
from Michigan’s pistol registration requirements
therefore, allowing them to possess a pistol in
Michigan, if all of the following requirements are
met:
1. The person is licensed by his or her state of
residence to purchase, transport, or carry a
pistol,
2. The person is in possession of the license while
in Michigan,
3. The person owns the pistol possessed in
Michigan,
4. The person possesses the pistol for a lawful
purpose as defined in MCL 750.231a, and
5. The person is in Michigan less than 180 days and
does not intend to establish residency here.

A non-resident must present the license issued
by his or her state of residence to a police officer
upon demand. Failure to do so is a 90-day
misdemeanor. When transporting a firearm in
Michigan, non-residents must transport pistols in
compliance with MCL 750.231a (discussed
above in the Transporting Firearms section),
unless they have a concealed pistol license
issued by their state of residence.

WOW, good to know as I work in Michigan from time to time.
