BATTLE CREEK, Mich. – The Battle Creek Police Department Administrative/Records Division will be unable to process licenses to purchase a firearm on both today, Thursday, Oct. 22, and tomorrow, Friday, Oct. 23.

This service change is due to the Michigan Department of Corrections completing the final phase of replacing their existing Offender Management Network Information with their new Corrections Offender Management System. This replacement work by the MDOC has resulted in the temporary inability to process licenses to purchase a firearm across the State of Michigan, until Monday, Oct. 26.

The BCPD Administrative/Records Division will be able to resume regular hours for processing licenses to purchase a firearm, of 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, on Monday, Oct. 26. Meanwhile, the Administrative/Records Division is still able to provide all other regular services for neighbors.

We apologize for any inconveniences that this temporary service change may cause our neighbors.
