Where do I get a permit to purchase/carry a concealed firearm?
Applications can be picked up at the Becker County Sheriff’s Office or the Detroit Lakes Police Department and must be filed with the agency that covers the jurisdiction in which you live. An extensive background check will be performed on all applicants. Gun locks are also available at these locations for free to help maintain a safe household if you have children. Carrying a Firearm on your person without a valid permit is a serious crime. The state of Minnesota also requires ALL Firearms being transported in a motor vehicle (including hunting rifles and shotguns) to be unloaded and properly cased in a separate area of the vehicle at all times.
