I recently got a job in Wisconsin so I'll be moving soon from Minnesota. What should I be aware of related to gun law? I know in general WI has slightly better laws. The only change that concerns me that I've seen is that landlords can ban guns. Where in MN they're prohibited from doing so. I know I'm going to have to rent, so is it common where they do?

I purchased a 16 inch AR style rifle from PSA and had it sent to my local Ace? Is their a wait period with the 4473 or you just fill it out, pay the transfer fee, and your on your way. I only ask because This is what someone told me and wasn’t sure if that’s how it worked. Or is there a waiting period like with pistols? I only ask because my drive to the FFL is a ways and wondering if I will be able to leave with it that day. When I purchased a pistol it took a week. So just wanting to clarify! Any information is helpful. Thank you

Hi all. Moved to Madison this Fall and interested in getting a handgun and practicing with it weekly at a range. Wondering whether it's worth getting a CCW, what people recommend for a non-CC affordable handgun, and any recommended ranges in the Madison area! I'm considering a Glock 19 and a CZ P-10 F right now... but not sure. Any advice on where to buy would also be appreciated!

Hi all, I have a couple questions regarding sale of guns in WI. Bear with me if these are stupid questions as these are my first guns and I've probably owned them for less than a year and am now looking to unload them. I bought them at Sun Prairie Cabela's but I do prefer to sell them through private sales over dealers like Cabela's or Max Creek. For context, I live in Madison, WI and my guns are Savage Arms Axis XP .270 and a CZ P-10C. I bought the rifle for hunting, which I did not shoot a single deer with, probably has less than 20 rounds on the range with it. And my pistol has probably less than 800 rounds in it.

1. How do I price these guns for sale, taking into account their condition?

2. Where do I sell them? Websites? Craigslist?

3. What is the paperwork like? As far as I know, no paperwork is required but I could be wrong.

4. Are the laws the same for rifles vs pistol? I couldn't find info on the regulations on private sales between the rifles and pistols.

Appreciate any advice given. Thank you!

I just ordered an lower receiver from brownells and put my old address that's not on my ID anymore will this cause issues?

I’m a WI CCW holder trying to see what’s the process and wait times people here in WI have experience. What’s the buying process like ? Do I need any specifics licensing ?

Where is the best place/range to practice transitioning from AR to handgun and training near Appleton area? Thanks.

Went to the FDL gun show this weekend. Was pretty much what I expected: guns, a lot of knives, some WWII memorabilia, and bearded dudes.

I brought a friend who is a sportsman and shooter. He was shocked at the upcharge on a box of primers.

I was very, very tempted to buy an SMLE for $700 or 1903 for $900, both in very nice condition. Then I remembered that I need money for entire list of broken stuff at home.

Overall, I didn’t have any huge expectations. So for $5 and some gas, I got to handle a few guns and spend some time with a friend. I take that as a win.

I'm currently living in the North Milwaukee/Ozaukee county area. I'm preparing to move within the next year and have several guns and boxed ammo I'd love to sell before moving. I'm thinking consignment would be my best option for sake of ease.

Any recommendations this community has?

Are there any indoor gun ranges for pistols, rifles, and shotguns near LaCrosse WI? I see one in baraboo but that’s all i see around here, are there more than one?

I am visiting Grandpa in Wisconsin and going to go shooting. He doesn't want me using his ammo so I need to buy my own. Am I able to go to just a store and buy it, no background checks, waiting period or other things that would stop me? If they do check ID, do they have problems with out of state (especially California) people? Thanks

Where is the best place to get a suppressor in wi I’m in the Janesville area and would prefer a shorter drive then the 4 hour drive to woodville which is the only one I know of Also would need rifle threading services as mine aren’t already

I will be moving to the state here real soon, I’m a IL ccl holder. Doj says I can use a copy of my valid non revoked ccl license to use as proof of training class. My issue is how would I apply and send over copies as I need to be a resident to apply and then when I become a resident my foid/ccl gets revoked… kinda counter intuitive if you ask me. Do I make a copy of my ccl now and fill out paper work, wait to submit until I get my address and change residency? Or

Just curious, which classes and what were your general impressions?

Any recommendations on reputable AK builders / gunsmiths in the WI/IL/IN area? Simple projects to parts builds?

Seen plenty of gunsmiths across the country but trying to stay away from shipping out the rifle.

Hey Guys,

I have a buddy who has an FFL. I've transferred a few guns through him even though his fee is a little more that some other places just because I know him and figured I'd spend my money with him. The issue arises when I try to transfer a handgun and long gun together. I've been told by multiple dealers the correct way is to put both on a 4473, then do the handgun form which gets checked through the state DOJ. Since it goes above and beyond the NICS check, the separate NICS isn't required and the long gun rides on the Handgun background check.

From the purchases I've made elsewhere in the state I assume this is correct. When I go to a gun store or buy from a FFL at a show, they only have me do one 4473 and it has both the long and handgun on it. At that point sometimes I get charged $10 for the handgun background check. The long gun usually rides free. I haven't bought both many times though.

My buddy is adamant this is not correct. And he can't put a handgun and a long gun on one 4473 form. But... he also said the max transfer limit is 3 long guns, but I found right no the ATF website that's not correct, as they have a insert page and you can buy as many long guns as you want. I tried googling and couldn't find anything written in stone for WI, other than the handgun hotline check goes above and beyond a NICS check. If I could find something in writing it might smooth things out with my buddy. I don't think he'd be trying to force extra transfers just to get the fee. But you know... people.

Thanks!

According to the Web and the application form, a completed hunters-safety course is satisfactory for a CC application. is this actually true? I turn 21 in January and it would definitely be more convenient to not have to do more classes, if not, its definitely not the end of the world.

I bought a handgun when I used to live in Illinois with a foid card at the beginning of this year I moved to Wisconsin and I’m wondering if there is anything I need to do to be able to use my handgun at a gun range. Like do I need to get any Wisconsin specific thing or do I need to let someone know I own this gun ???? Thanks I appreciate the help

I don't know all the rules and I'm not trying to get banned. I have to purge all of my firearms. I am having a difficult time selling them in southern wisconisin for what they are worth. I also have my Bushmaster ACR in auction through gunbroker posted by dam road gun shop and it isn't getting the bids I expected. Feeling pretty dissapointed.

I was going to join the military and I have a number of firearms that I would need to store. Storaging them with family members isn't an option. I do have a large safe and was planning on storing them in self storage inside the safe. Is there any climate controlled locations that allow that? Or any other ideas?

Sold my AR 10 due to a bunch of QC issues. I now have 60 rounds of hunting ammo and about 40 rounds of Range ammo. Everyone that I know who has guns wasn’t interested/didn’t need. Wondering where the best place to sell it is? Just want to get a little bit of money back not looking to make a ton. Pawnshops were weird about it because the ammo is isn’t in original boxes. Green Bay Area

Hey all. Some not so good news. Got home from Opening weekend last night and found my garage door kicked in and my bedroom ransacked. 3 AR-15’s and 4 pistols were stolen. One very specific pistol will be undeniably mine. It is an Sig M17 with WIARNG red arrow and Ukrainian trident lasered on the slide. Also has “Les Terribles” and our deployment dates. It is numbered 6 of 32. Also has a vortex venom sight. Please keep an eye out for it at gunshops and if you see it call law enforcement. I’d appreciate your help.

Anybody know the best place to sell on consignment in southern wi? I heard top pack defense takes 15% but can be picky. Got a gen 1 galil ace in 5.56 with a kns piston that’s just been living in my safe and I could use the extra cash for school and ammo
