My wife's family is planning a reunion later this year at The Dells in Wisconsin, and we plan to drive. With Iowa joining the club, my Texas CHL is now good all the way to Wisconsin, if I skirt Illinois (the scene of our last domestic reunion, ur most recent was a cruise, so I'm three for three being disarmed by my in-laws). I hate to take a long road trip unarmed, but if I have to bury my gun at the border and dig it up again on the way home, I won't be happy. I know there is a federal law regarding the transportation of guns which lets you keep them locked and empty in the trunk ... will that work for the three days we'll be visiting in Wisconsin? Are there local laws that might make it possible for that to work, or will I be hauled off in chains if the gun is discovered? I know Wisconsin is working on a CC law, so maybe it will happen before we leave ... What do you think?
