I am going to a family reunion in Beloit, Wi.
I get this call from my cousin who never calls me or really even talks to me and the first thing out of his mouth was, "Hey, Wisconsin just passed this law that you can carry a gun as long as you have a permit."
I was trying to correct him thatone does notneed a permit, didn't mention that is Wisconsin's Constitution, but he was determined that you needed a permit. Anyway, I told him that I do have my Arkansas permit (not that Wisconsin honors it) and that Wisconsin is only an OC State. He just could not believe that Wisconsin pass such a law (I know Constitution). I told him I carry all the time down here and he said, "I know both you and your wife carry." I'm thinking at this point people are talking because I never talk to this guy.
My question is do I carry and possible cause a seen or forgo it for the day?
I know everybody knows I carry that lives by me everyday but distant relatives I'm not sure about. This will be on privet property and I don't know how the home owner will like me showing up with a .40 in a holster. I have carried an empty holster in Illinois around them but never open and I know I scared a few people then. One person asked if I was a cop and I said no but in Illinois I can't open carry. I was showing another cousin, who is into cowboy shoots, my holster at the time.
I just don't like the idea of being in Beloit unarmed.
I hope I gave you as clear as mud picture.
I have not asked my Uncle if it was ok to carry at his house yet.
