2minimum age to be eligible for a license to carry a concealed weapon.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Current law generally prohibits an individual from carrying a concealed
weapon unless the individual has a license to carry a concealed weapon that is issued
by the Department of Justice. Under current law, DOJ may not issue a license to an
individual who is under the age of 21. This bill lowers the minimum age requirement
from 21 to 18.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
