Can individuals convicted of a felony apply for a Wisconsin CCW permit?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only if pardoned

  4. Only if the felony was non-violent

The correct answer is: No

The correct response is that individuals convicted of a felony cannot apply for a Wisconsin concealed carry weapon (CCW) permit. Under Wisconsin law, a felony conviction creates a significant restriction regarding firearm possession and the ability to obtain a CCW permit. Since the law explicitly prohibits those with felony convictions from holding a CCW, this answer accurately reflects the legal stance in the state. While there are provisions for individuals to seek a pardon, such a step allows for the potential restoration of rights but is not guaranteed and doesn't directly permit immediate application for a CCW. Similarly, the context surrounding non-violent felonies does not alter the basic legal restriction in place for all felony convictions regarding concealed carry.
