Wisconsin Dept. of Justice implements new "rules" for concealed carry.

 

The Wisconsin Department of Justice has implemented new "permanent" rules regarding the issuance of concealed carry permits.  Since Act 35 (Wisconsin's concealed carry law) went into place they have been operating under "emergency" rules.  The new permanent rules went into effect on June 1st, 2013.  Among the changes to the rules are: The application fee is now $43 (old fee was $50) -- There is also a new application form.  If you took one of Wisconsin Carry's FREE concealed carry classes your proof of training is still valid but you need to print and use the new concealed carry license application located here: http://www.doj.state.wi.us/sites/default/files/dles/ccw/concealed-carry-application.pdf

Stay tuned for more updates regarding these permanent rules.
