Which of the following firearms is NOT eligible for CPL carry in Michigan?

Semi-automatic pistols
Revolvers
Automatic firearms
Derringers

The correct answer is: Automatic firearms

It is illegal to carry automatic firearms in Michigan under any circumstances, including with a CPL. This is because automatic firearms, also known as machine guns, are capable of quickly firing multiple rounds with a single trigger pull, making them more dangerous and likely to cause harm. Semi-automatic pistols, revolvers, and derringers, on the other hand, are all eligible for CPL carry in Michigan as long as they meet certain criteria set by the state. These firearms are typically allowed because they are less powerful and have a lower rate of fire compared to automatic firearms. This means they are considered less of a threat to public safety and can be responsibly carried by individuals who have obtained a CPL.
