No, 18 and over. But it’s not a felony. There is also no law about state lines. Person who got him the gun could be looking at a felony if he’s convicted.
As 16 and older don't need an adult to carry a rifle alone (idea is re hunting, but if the statute fits...). Just better hope, as a non-resident and re: the feds, that there was no school within x feet unless Biden looses big-time.

(2)
(a) Any person under 18 years of age who possesses or goes armed with a dangerous weapon is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.
[...]
(c) This section applies only to a person under 18 years of age who possesses or is armed with a rifle or a shotgun if the person is in violation of s. 941.28 or is not in compliance with ss. 29.304 and 29.593.

Holy shit that is one of the worst written things I have read. They just make up shit like it real "what if there was a school close?" I wouldn't take their expert they talked to for any advice. Hunting? Dear god.
WI statute 175.37[34]
Possession of a dangerous weapon by anyone under 18 is a class A misdemeanor. Giving/loaning/selling a dangerous weapon to someone under 18 is a class I felony.
That the law. It would pretty dumb to say he was hunting or anything else
Defenses to prosecution under this statute:
Target practice under the supervision of an adult
Members of armed forces or police under 18 in the line of duty
Hunting (either with an adult or having passed hunter's safety)
I would tell my lawyer to fuck off if he tried to use any of those. Self Defense is really the only thing they need to be focused on.
Honestly, the law does not say you have to use the exception for hunting.
I would argue the point for any client and expect to win with a fair judge. After all, it would be 100% fine if Kyle was about 4 months and a bit over one week older.
The self defence is for the shootings. But works better if Kyle violated no other law first directly related to his self defence (clean hands). And can help get him off with no criminal record and then become a cop in a MAGA sheriff's office.
This is the question I keep asking and can't find an answer to. I think he should be able to carry, but I want to know if he can legally because I want to know what charges they will throw at him.
17 year old can legal carry in WI?

Not a handgun. May be fine!

29.304 above may help save his ass.
