Concealed Weapon. Felony Firearm
Weapons-related offenses in Michigan include illegal possession of a firearm, carrying a concealed weapon (CCW), felon in possession, brandishing a firearm, and using a weapon during a crime.
Penalties vary widely — from fines and probation to multi-year prison sentences. A conviction can also result in loss of gun ownership rights and a permanent criminal record.
