A freind of mine is travaling from S.E. WI to NW WI and does not yet have his CCW License (we are talking a class together with a few other friends Thursday night)...
He asked the inevitable question on how to carry his firearm leagaly while driving. I told him that although open carry is legal, without a CCW he would be taking a chance of being hasssled by LEO and possibly even arrested for open carrying his firearm on his hip while driving. I also told him about the driving through a school zone (1000 ft.) without a CCW is still not legal.
To make a long story short, against my instincts to advise anyone to be armed in self-defense, I basically gave him the impression that it might not be a good idea, as he was also new to open carrying....
Thoughts.....???????
