    Wisconsin firearm laws...

    Hey guys... Leaving Thursday night from AZ for a drive to WI for my sister's wedding. Was looking at WI gun laws and I am pretty sure I understand them but wanted to get clarification from you "wisconsin-ities" before I do anything. I actually grew up there but wasn't into firearms back then so never really had a need to understand such laws. If you can confirm what I have learned and seen on the internet below it would be greatly appreciated. I was planning on doing some shooting on my Fiances' Dad's farm as he says it's legal though I know for a fact he hasn't looked into the laws seriously.

    *I DO NOT HAVE A CONCEALED CARRY LICENSE YET*

    • Open carry is legal for all individuals that can legally own a firearm, I do not intend to open carry...

    • There is no ban on high capacity magazines or AR related features

    • no real laws on the transportation of firearms... IE firearms can be loaded in the vehicle as long as they are not concealed. No issues like they have to be in a locked case with magazines out and ammo in another container

    • only concealed carry licensed personnel can carry concealed

    • 3" or less knife lengths and no OTFs


    Last question as I was going to just call though figured I could just quickly ask it here is... Does Bravo Company have a store front??

    All correct except long guns are NOT permitted to be loaded while transporting. They do not have to be cased. Handguns may be loaded & concealed.

    Not sure about the knife question.

    BCM does not have a storefront. In fact, you probably wouldn't even recognize it if you drove past. Midwest Industries does have a storefront & has BCM products in stock. It's also not too far from BCM.

    Great thanks for the update on the long gun... I appreciate it. I will look into MI's store front. I was looking to pick up a BCM BCG, buffer and carbine spring.

    To my knowledge you may not transport a loaded handgun concealed without a ccw.

    It can be loaded & concealed but it can't be within reach. Sorry for not clarifying earlier.

    Eta: too bad you don't have an AZ permit yet. Wis honors them.

    You may carry a loaded handgun in your car concealed only if you have a valid ccw. Without the permit you would be cited for having a concealed weapon. So since the OP does not have a valid ccw he cannot transport a loaded handgun concealed.
