Out-of-state Licenses Recognized in Wisconsin
Licensees from any of the listed states will be recognized in Wisconsin as an out-of-state licensee per Sec. 175.60 (1)(g) Wis. Stats. This was determined based on the statutory requirement in s. 165.25 (12) that the listed state requires, or designates that the holder chose to submit, to a background search that is comparable to Wisconsin’s background check in s. 175.60 (1)(ac). Wisconsin’s background check includes only two components (1) A criminal history record search; (2) A search of the national instant criminal background check system (NICS). If another states background check meets the same requirements a Wisconsin resident must meet, the DOJ has recognized that state. The DOJ has tried to be as inclusive as possible and will periodically check and update the list if other states can be added. This list is current as of 10/18/11:

Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Washington, Wyoming, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands

Yes NC is in there, they have been honoring Nebraska's permit I think since we have started honoring other states permits

Here is where I keep a list of states from a Nebraskans point of view:    http://neccwtraining.com/id20.html (http://neccwtraining.com/id20.html)

On a side note, one thing to keep in mind sites like Handgunlaw.us are great, but you have to be careful some states that are listed don't necessarily honor all permits (because of residency)

So how can we get South Carolina on board? I have spoken to Jon B a couple of times and he said he would look into it...I wonder if he did...never heard back  :-\

The NE AG's office has contacted South Carolina a couple times...... SC seems to be lazy and not interested in updating their reciprocity list
