Now we just wait on Snyder?

Yes. He has 2 weeks or something (I can't keep it straight between different states and fed) to sign. I can't remember if it's a pocket veto after that, or if it becomes law if he doesn't take action. I haven't had my coffee yet and I'm rusty.
What about the air gun reclassification package of bills? I'll go look up some info on where those stand...
ETA1: OP's title is misleading. Most of us around here think of gun control in a negative sense. I think these bills are a step in the right direction.
ETA2: The air gun reclassification package still has a ways to go. The House Bills 4151 - 4156 (all 6 bills are part of it) were amended yesterday to add a stipulation that none of them are enacted unless everyone of them is enacted. This makes sense because otherwise there would be differing legal definitions of air guns in various portions of the MCL. However, Senate Bill 85 is also part of the package now, but it was introduced on 10 Feb. and hasn't made it to a Senate committee yet. SB 85 introduces air gun preemption by the state, that's pretty good.
So, the air gun reclassification package has some time yet to go. Neither set of bills has passed the branch that introduced it. It's looking like they will, just takes time.
ETA3: Snyder has 14 days to sign or veto the bill, or it will become law either way. That's from the time he receives it, and the Senate hasn't yet sent the bill to him, so that clock isn't ticking yet. It may be sent to him today, but if not, it'll be sometime next week. So, he likely has until about 17 March (rough estimate) to decide.
