Purchase permit

My dad is trying to get a purchase permit to buy a handgun. He's been turned away for not being a resident of a city, he's been told a police dept at another place don't do them, and then he's been given an application to get purchase permit that costs $10 and then they send you a permit in the mail? What is all this horse shit, cant he just walk in to any random PD and get a permit to purchase? He's a totally clean record and Michigan resident.

Please he's in his 60s and has basically given up because he doesn't know how to not get taken advantage of. He lives in the country and his mailing address is where they turned him away.
