Concealed Carry Permit FAQs Posted


Recently Officers have been asked questions regarding the new concealed carry law.  As a result I have included a list of frequently asked questions created by the Wisconsin Department of Justice regarding the Concealed Carry Law.  Wisconsin Act 35 was signed into law on July 8, 2011, and published on July 22, 2011. However, the provisions regarding CCW licenses do not take effect until November 1, 2011. On November 1st 2011 the Wisconsin Department of Justice will publish the CCW Application for individuals interested in obtaining a CCW permit.
