Thanks to our legislature and Governor Snyder making this change at the end of in 2018, which I somehow missed until I did a recent dig through the Michigan Complied Laws, Michigan residents can now carry more effective pepper spray without violating the law.
Previously it was a maximum of 5%, then it was increased a few years back to a maximum of 10% oleresin caspiscum.
Now, thanks to a law passed in late 2018, you can carry up to 18% pepper spray in Michigan, catching us up to 45 other states.
It can also now contain an ultraviolet dye for later identifying the attacker, which is nice.
Amazon still has Police Magnum 17% as black-listed for shipment to Michigan.
ReplyDeleteI was unable to drill down and get a contact to inform them that this was old information.
Eaton Rapids Joe: Yep, quite a few vendors online still have the 10% limit, which is no longer in effect.
