Which of the following is considered a proper reason for denying a CCW license application in Wisconsin?

  1. Lack of proper identification

  2. Having a past speeding ticket

  3. Being convicted of a felony

  4. Not being a resident of the county where applying

The correct answer is: Being convicted of a felony

Being convicted of a felony is considered a proper reason for denying a CCW license application in Wisconsin because individuals who have been convicted of a felony are prohibited from possessing firearms under both state and federal law. Felons are classified as prohibited persons and are not eligible to obtain a CCW license. This is in accordance with Wisconsin law, which aims to ensure that only individuals who meet certain criteria and do not pose a risk to public safety are granted a CCW license. Options A, B, and D are not considered proper reasons for denying a CCW license application in Wisconsin. Lack of proper identification and not being a resident of the county where applying may be issues that need to be resolved before the application can be processed, but they are not sufficient reasons for outright denial. Similarly, having a past speeding ticket is not typically a disqualifying factor for obtaining a CCW license in Wisconsin.
