What types of firearms are residents allowed to carry with a CCW permit in Wisconsin?

  1. Handguns only

  2. Handguns and rifles

  3. Any legal firearm

  4. Handguns, rifles, and shotguns

The correct answer is: Handguns only

In Wisconsin, individuals with a concealed carry permit are allowed to carry handguns in a concealed manner. The law specifically allows for the carrying of handguns, emphasizing personal protection and self-defense. The distinction in this context is that while rifles and shotguns are legal to possess and use in various contexts, they are not covered under the scope of what is permissible for concealed carry under the current legislation. Therefore, the focus is firmly on handguns as the allowed type of firearm for concealed carry with a permit in Wisconsin. This aligns with the understanding of concealed carry laws in the state and reflects the specific regulations that are in place regarding the types of firearms eligible for concealed carry.
