This study argues that Wisconsin’s failure to pass any concealed carrying of weapons (CCW) legislation stems from the multitude of differing opinions and findings on CCW. This assertion is made by focusing on three studies on CCW with contradictory conclusions, coupled with a history of CCW in the United States. I show that the multitude of opinions and findings offered by the experts has delayed Wisconsin in passing CCW legislation.
