What type of ammunition is prohibited from use in a concealed carry weapon in Wisconsin?

  1. Hollow-point bullets

  2. Armor-piercing bullets

  3. Tracer bullets

  4. Shotgun shells

The correct answer is: Armor-piercing bullets

Armor-piercing bullets are prohibited from use in a concealed carry weapon in Wisconsin because they are designed to penetrate armor or protective barriers and pose an increased risk to bystanders and law enforcement personnel. Hollow-point bullets are commonly used for self-defense as they expand upon impact, reducing the risk of over-penetration and collateral damage. Tracer bullets are often used for training and can help shooters track their shots, but they are not typically allowed due to fire hazard concerns. Shotgun shells are commonly used for hunting or self-defense purposes and are not specifically prohibited for use in concealed carry weapons in Wisconsin.
