Travel to WI from IN - sidearm ok?

For travel, there's a CCW app that's updated regularly. Think it costs a buck.

CCW – Concealed Carry 50 State - Apps on Google Play

Follow complex state CCW permit laws and lawfully carry firearms in each state.

I had this app for a while. They now charge you every year. I like Legal Heat better and it is a one time fee. I drive through Illinois frequently on the way to Omaha and I DO NOT stop for anything.

From what I recall the area immediately around your car is ok in Illinois as well, so as long as you pay at the pump, and don't have to see you could get out to fill up, without having to remove your gun.

Moral of the story. Fill up in Indiana, go the speed limit in IL, don't stop for Jack, and once in wI stop for food/fuel again.

What about stopping for Jill? Especially if she's hot?

Nope.
Remember no matter how HOT she is there is someone somewhere tired of her s....!

She ain't worth it especially from a liberal state.

I know this is fake because there are not that many houses in Coon or in Coon Valley.

Not really, it is only so that you may get out of vehicle to store carry gun in the trunk or retrieve it from trunk. I know you are no further away from your vehicle with pay at the pump than you are going to the trunk. You have to remember these laws were written by people that know very little about guns except they hate them. The only reason Illinois has CCW is because a federal judge ruled the state had to provide a method of self defense outside the home. Jim.

Thank you all for your insight and ad you can see why the original post AVOIDED discussion of IL as it's a rabbit hole of messy laws that were already known to jedi.

WI was the primary focus of the original post.

I did, I do, and to be extra safe, I posted what "I" do.

Locking up your unloaded gun doesn't make you safer, only more vulnerable but if it makes you feel better than best of luck if you ever need your gun when its safely locked up in order to make you feel extra safe

While you are correct from this point of view (safe as in personal protection) jedi thinks you misunderstood what STEEL CORE meant by "extra safe".

Extra safe in terms of having a firearm in Illinois and obeying IL laws so as to not get charged with breaking their laws and getting a felony and then losing all firearm ownership. From THAT point of view (not breaking IL laws) he too is correct that he is staying safe or extra safe for that matter.

Thus see why jedi wanted to AVOID IL from the original post.
