Hi, I am new to this forum. I have been reading some of the discussions and people keep saying this and that about the law. They will at least cite their references (some times) but no one has put a link to show were they are getting them. Anyone can say something and even cite a reference for it and be lying or just misinformed.
I have been talking with a friend about open carrying here in Wisconsin. My friend kept asking me if i was sure it was legal to open carry. So i told him what i had been reading about it here, but that still wasn't enough for him. He wanted to see the actual law. I thought that that was a great idea. After spending a lot of time trying to refind the stuff i had read to see if i could find the referenced laws.
Indeed I did find what i was looking for so I thought I would share what I have found.
I found the Wisconsin state constitution. I also found the Wisconsin state statute that has been referenced a lot here, along with a bunch of other Wisconsin firearm laws.
here is the site that i found them on. Oh i should mention that it is government site. so not just some guy that thinks he knows the law.

The two documents that have been tossed around here are ; the Wisconsin constitution section 25 and Wisconsin statute 66.0409
I have been wanting to open carry a gun since i got a 44 cap and ball revolver when i was 17. I knew then that I could not because i wasn't yet an adult. After reading a few discussions here, i have decided to start to carry openly off my property. i have been carrying and using guns here at home since i was 16, and carrying concealed (again here at home) since i was 18.
While i am here and still typing i thought that i would ask a question too. I know that carrying a gun that is not properly cased on or in a motorized vehicle is illegal. So i was wondering about on horse back. If any on happens to know off hand that would be kinda nice to know some time.
