just trying to get the lowdown on oc inside a vehicle - of course this is without a ccl - I hear/read too much of this or that - I want to be sure for those that ask or if I give out info .
I do have my ccl - no class needed but I still took one . I have a Utah permit also . southpaw here . I do oc and cc .
I was just trying to get info for one that does not have a ccl , and wants to open carry and what to do once getting in a vehicle .
thanks for the feedback
You will want to investigate further ramifications if you become a WI resident. I don't know what the answer there is, but I believe you would need to get a WI CCL, and not count on your Utah permit. I could be wrong, on phone, research and linking difficult. If WI honors Utah, and I believe they do, you're good either way, as well as in a vehicle, as a non resident.
However, for OC you are good in WI whether a resident of not. No permit/lic even available for OC, no requirement to show CCL when OC, when traffic stopped, tho OC you would need to have it visible. For just walking around, OC is not RAS of a crime. Other than "maybe"downtown Madison or Milwaukee, I doubt you'll get flack from LE. I think that is pretty settled, but of course nothing is certain.
You Utah permit should cover you, but in a vehicle that might cause it to be CC due to the interior. About the only thing I will say for certain is that it is way more complicated than it needs to be. And should be.
You didn't really say if you were moving to WI, or just visiting or on an extended stay. Or maybe I missed it. It would be nice if the rules were the same for everyone, but I don't know how we realistically get there. I've found mistakes and old Intel on all of the carry sites. WI DOJ has a FAQ sheet that is pretty easy to read and understand, maybe look that up and give it a once over.
