| Just sent in for my concealed carry, anyone know at what kind of waiting time I'm looking at before I hear back? |

Quoted:
At least it won't be 44 days like (some) us first month applicants ;-) That was about a year ago now. I remember it fondly and the wait was about as exciting as when you're a kid at Christmas. We all were checking these forums on a regular basis, living vicariously through the lucky ones who already recieved the coveted envelope from the DOJ. Fun, exciting times people. I wonder if there will be another backlog when those of us in the initial rush all have to renew at about the same time? |

Quoted:
... I have the background checks done by Homeland sercurity and the FBI already. I have the Hazmat endorsement on my CDL. Unfortunately, this is irrelevant. The systems in place for these checks are totally separate. The duplication of effort with background checks is stupid. |

I wish Wisconsin CC was recognized in Minnesota. You can thank the WI DOJ for that (WI will not recognize MN) ... ![]() Minnesota IS recognized in WI, the DOJ website says so. http://www.doj.state.wi.us/dles/cib/ConcealedCarry/reciprocity.asp Any person who is at least 21 years of age, who is not a Wisconsin resident,* and who holds a valid concealed carry license issued by any of the states on DOJ’s list will be recognized in Wisconsin as an out-of-state licensee, per s. 175.60 (1)(g). In establishing this list, DOJ has tried to be as inclusive as possible and has communicated with officials in every other state to obtain information about their background check laws and policies. This list is current as of 06/11/12: Arizona Arkansas California Colorado Connecticut Georgia Hawaii Idaho Indiana Iowa Kansas Kentucky Louisiana Maryland Michigan Minnesota Montana Nebraska New Mexico New York North Carolina North Dakota Pennsylvania Tennessee Texas Utah Virginia (Non-Resident Only) Washington West Virginia (issued after 6-8-12)* Wyoming Puerto Rico U.S. Virgin Islands *A Virginia non-resident license specifically states “non-resident” on the license. The resident license does not qualify for recognition in Wisconsin. |

MN requires a "gang task force" database lookup. WI requires neither of these, so a straight up permit from WI won't apply in MN. This is not a WI DoJ issue unless you are advocating that WI require live-fire. It seems to be relatively easy to get a MN permit as a WI resident with the proper training and certificate from same. They are 'shall issue' and an out of state resident can apply to any sheriff. If you are going to go that route, Utah is probably a better choice though. (But watch out for "you must be a resident of the state of the permit you carry" parts of the law that some states have.) I wonder if MN could accept a WI CCW if the person has had it a year or something... I probably do more live-fire in a month than their requirement. Classes ask people to bring 50 rounds so it's not much live fire.
