I know this is day one for submitting applications, but why not start a thread to see just how long WI takes to review, background check, and issue CCW permits. If you get ANY action, post it, and keep it going to the top. Wisconsin, boldly going where only 48 other states have gone before!
AFAIK, there's no planned recalls in the Assembly, and it's solidly behind Act 35, and it's not just the repulicans. Even IF Walker got recalled (he won't), and more repub senators get recalled (they won't) there's still the Assembly to get a bill through. Zepnick is a fool. Isn't he the same nutcase that proposed a bill to ban CC at gas stations? I really thought that was just a joke, and kept waiting for the punchline... that never came. He can "plan" whatever he can dream up... but his getting anywhere with his plans is a delusion.
Mr Zepnick has been a pain in conceal carry since it's conception. the best way to stop him is to support Gov.Walker weather you have had to wait for your permit or have it already. We would not even be having this conversation if it wasn't for the Republican majority and Gov Walker. He has also signed bills supporting sportsman. and the State is begining to crawl our way out of the financial problems the Dems dropped us into.So please support our Gov and protect our new hard fought for rights and the well being of our State.
I'm on day 36 waiting couldn't be happier I am just thrilled to live in a state that has conceal carry even if I have to wait. I have a S&W model 60 .38 snubbie on layaway anxious to be able to carry. Thankyou Gov. Walker for signing our new law.
With the over whelming applications for the permit these lawmakers once they tally final numbers will not play political suicide. It's here to stay! Hey we shouldnt talk politics on this page.
Your assuming the DOJ would be emplying logic to there madness, which sadly they do not have that ability. Hate to tell you but your application arrived about the day when the DOJ received 7500 in one day! yours and most of the rest of us were buried at the bottom. Good news is they are making head way. I still have not got mine either.
Well here's an update

Congrats too her now she can carry that Taurus 1911 45acp I got her for her birthday on 11/20/11.
The Cassull and the 357 magnum still waiting for their day!
Kathie63 I do not want to turn this into political thread but cannot help but wonder how can you support the Dems Doyle vetoed the CCW law no less than 2 times maybe more.
Walker is a friend of the 2nd amendment. Everyone I ask for specific reasons why they do not like Walker just repeat political talking points. I hope you are not buying into this misinformation and really reconsider that vote against our 2nd amendment rights. The Dems have nobody to run and my bet seeing the power is in Madison you will end up with an anti-gun liberal. Like Barrett was.
Last post with political content.
I have not as of yet had any response from my legislative represetatives.
Really do not expect too but it would be nice to hear from them or just get my permit. Can't keep buying guns to make myself feel better that's getting expensive.
Not much going on here tonight, I'm disgruntled with the whole thing! It's sure nice to see people who mailed in nearly a month after us getting theres. Sure wish the DOJ would explain how they process app's in order in which they are received!! There is no back ground check which takes this amount of time... They were unprepared, under staffed, over whelmed. Critical mistakes made, applications buried. Instead of doing the right thing and get caught up they left us sit buried.
So I'll put a pot of coffee on in the morning and await yet another trip to the mail box
Well I posted back on a post in the 660s that the wife would get hers before mine and sure enough she did even though hers was cashed 2 days after mine. They gotta be working that pile lost backwards would be my guess
SENT APPLICATION IN............11/7.....................CHECK CASHED................11/21............It is now December 15th.......and still not a word.........CONGRATS to those of you that have gotten your permits!
I am trying to figure out the point of applying early, was it to just stimulate cash flow for the state?
This is a lesson for me on how government works. hurry up and wait....
Good Morning everyone, It's a new day and I'm growing tired of trying to portray that I'm upbeat when in fact I'm depressed over this entire quagmire. This entire situation just re-enforces my distrust in the ability of the government. What should have been a orderly process has turned into a nightmare. Madison and for that matter Washington should have an industrial ennma, we need a good flushing.
Day 39 or 40 now lost track.
Mailed 11/4
Deposited 11/16
Still waiting, Processed in order of receiving, I don't know whats worse the raping that is taking place or the lying. Believe me I re wrote this to make it clean.
Why even waist the ink on the application "Applications processed in order of Reciept" Utter Balderdash!! DOJ has made no attempt to say sorry. They have made excuse after excuse. To those who have already received your permit your simply plain lucky in a flawed processe in a flawed agency. I was raised say what you mean and mean what you say! If we tried this crap to the dept of revenue or others they would crush us like a water bug. I have to go to walgreens to get some grease for this shafting I'm taking.

Mine was cashed on the 15
Yours was cashed on the 16
Wife's was cashed on the 17
Bet we are all in the same stack and they forgot to flip it over.
Wife got hers 12/14 I'm guessing you next then mine will be after yours.
From your mouth to gods ear! I know whats going to happen if it goes past 45 day's.
#1. Send DOJ proof of check being cashed.
#2. WAIT for 2 to 4 weeks.
#3. DOJ either sends permit or tells you to submit another application 50/50 "do we feel lucky?"
#4. WAIT another 2 to 4 weeks.

I really hate to say this but I'm thinking your on the bottom of that stack.
When in fact if they would have just flipped it over you would have been towards the top where ya should have been.
sent Nov2nd
Received DOJ 8th of November
Checks cleared the bank Nov 18th
DOJ sent wife's permit Nov29th
Sent Legislators email December 14th
December 15 another day no permit mail lady already gone, no permit, oh did I just say that?
The Wisconsin Department of Justice has received 57,461 concealed carry permit applications since the law went into effect Nov. 1, and had issued 25,995 permits as of Wednesday.
I've talked with some cops and it's interesting. half of them are cool with the entire ccw, the others hate it! I mean flat out hate it! I told the one cop since he hated it so much he should perhaps seek other employment. That did not sit well with him, I than said it's my constitutional right! I asked him is that what they teach in the cop school these days. He walked away from me. I'm afraid this poor fellow thinks the only good guys are the cops everyone else are the bad guys.
Morning everyone, Its thursday at the DOJ, on thursdays, DOJ employees who have had a lobotomy preformed on them get to eat first in the lunch room, not much getting done today on account everyone is already waiting in line for their food. However, tomorow just may be our day, on friday they have the DOJ employee with the shortest arms draw applications out of the giant mail bag labeled Nov1 thru Dec 15. This employee with the shortest arms, reaches into the excessivly deep mail bag, hands applications to the DOJ employee who can actually read, one at a time. That is the order the employee who can read recieves, (order recieved). It is unclear to me at this point if they just cash the checks... Or have further steps... But it is this drawing that determins order recieved. I think most of us from early november are way at the botom of the deep giant mail bag. Me may never recieve a permit at all. Our only chance is if the short armed lobotomy employee calls in sic I guess? I dont know about you guys but Im calling my congressman and requesting DOJ employees with longer arms, just another angle, sounds like everything elts has been tried???
Ok, I have been reading this for a few weeks now and had to put in my 2 cents worth. I too have been waiting for my CCW although I did not send mine out until Nov 11. I sent it first thing Tuesday morning on Nov 1 and had it returned on Thu 11/10. A stupid mistake that was all my fault Resent on 11/11, check cashed 11/21, cleared 11/22.
I have not complained yet, BUT, a coworker sent his in on 11/4 and has had his in pocket for over a week and his father recieved his a week earlier than that. Can't understand why apps mailed on 11/1 would still be MIA??

I'll give this a shot, at the start a lot of early applicants were processed and issued really fast. Than in one day DOJ had over 7000 applications delivered! Thats BIG I admit, where they messed up is they dumped those on top of ours making a mess of the process.
Well my mail lady will be here in about an hour. Sure I'd like to see it come today. But I believe I would have better odds at the powerball at this point.
Well, Im not totally convinced, but I tend to think we will get them before the 45 days, as long as I keep hearing that the 11/1 guys are still getting them I think their is hope, even if that is the case, processing them in any other manner than order recieved would seem to me to be an infringment on the law??? In what year did govt. go from writeing the laws to being the law???:scratchchin:
