"I left this exception out because it said "in a secure wrapper," which I took to mean a locked case. It may not be."
That is a strange bit of wording. However, I wonder if being cased is "in a secure wrapper". I would think so. They probably leave it vague that way so that they are not too constrictive on how to transport a weapon. Being cased (i.e. in a holster being one form of cased) should fit the guidelines of being wrapped and secure.

"which I took to mean a locked case. It may not be."
If it meant a locked case, it would not cover all the exceptions I raised. When you buy a firearm, the dealer is not required to sell you a locked case to go along with it. So either it does not cover the exception or if it is supposed to I would think that by law they would be forced to sell you a locked case to go along with the firearm.

Whoops, my post 22 was meant for you also...

Not necessarily, for example, the dealer is not required to even see your LTCF because it is not necessary to purchase a firearm. Thus, he can assume that everyone who purchases can legally carry it loaded in their vehicle.
You're right, I can't see a definition of a secure carrier. But making an effort to carry it securely and unloaded, even if not in a case, may be sufficient. I don't want to be the one to be the test case though, nor could I since I have my LTCF :)

I'm with you. Avoid the whole thing, spend a $25 processing fee and have an LTCF in my wallet...

I have not heard anything more. However, the common pattern is to keep coming back with the legislation until it passes. The Michigan legislature should be a bit more amenable to this legislation in January.
