if I remember you are near Ann Arbor. Take the drive to Fenton (30 mins)and go to Guns Galore. Dont take any money just go look and educate yourself. It is the best place to buy. You will not need any permit for a rifle. When you are ready to buy they run an instant check then you pay money, then you walk out the door with your new gun. When buying remember you need to shoot bullets! Bullets can vary in cost greatly. If you are on a budget Id suggest a gun that shoots military rounds, they are far cheaper. My last was an SKS it shoots 762x39 and I get 1000 rounds for $95. So I can take out 500 rounds at a time and have a blast shooting without breaking the bank

good luck, be safe and have fun! Enjoy YOUR 2nd ammendment
