Proposed Michigan Law Targets Brightly Colored and Disguised Guns

Michigan lawmakers are taking steps to crack down on firearms that don’t look like traditional guns. A new proposal targets brightly colored guns and those designed to look like everyday objects, saying they could cause confusion or pose a public safety risk.

The proposed law would make it illegal to sell, own, or modify guns in ways that make them appear as toys or non-threatening items. Supporters say the goal is to ensure firearms are recognizable as weapons, preventing accidents or misunderstandings.
