I've been researching this a little further. I know for a fact that when the WI ccw reciprocity list was published back in the early days of our ccw law (which took effect on 11/1/2011) FL licenses were honored, both resident & non-res, provided you were NOT a resident of WI. I had a FL license since 2001, but had to wait for my WI license. I have relatives from FL who have a FL license, and theirs was good here on day 1 (I remember being a little pissed off about that situation, and also that we honored FL, but FL didn't honor WI). I also remember confirming that my bro-in-law from FL was able to legally carry here with his FL resident license when they visited in the summer of 2015. I'm 100% certain this was not always the way the reciprocity with FL was handled.
When did a liberal Dem become AG?
In looking through all the updates that have been posted on handgunlaw.com, they show an update posted on 8/9/19 that reads: "What Permits From Florida WI honors Updated in Permit/Licenses This State Honors Section". Over on the WI DOJ website, the reciprocity list there says it is "current" as of July 18, 2019. Apparently, that's about when it was determined that the background check done on FL residents wasn't sufficient enough to satisfy the WI law for reciprocity, and the list was modified to include
FL non-resident licenses only are honored.
