What about GA, my wife works in Augusta at a private school/church do you have to have permission or is it allowed? She is waiting on her permit to come back from SLED and the church is in a bad area so she would like to carry there if possible.


She couldn't carry there regardless. If her permit is a SC permit, GA does not honor it.

As for the NH license, as Mike pointed out, the NH licesence is for SC residents who want to carry in GA. It won't work for GA residents carrying in SC. To get a permit that SC will honor is going to require taking a class. Also from the list that Mike posted, only Florida will issue permits to Non-Residents.

So, if you are a GA resident and want to carry in SC, you have to take the training that FL requires and get a FL permit.

If you are a SC resident and want to carry in GA, then the easiest method is to get a NH permit.

SC doesnt consider Black powder gun to to be guns under their license program, since they follow the federal definition of Gun iirc.

so you could technically carry BP revolver without a license, it would more than likely need to be carried open. so you might draw some attention, since OC or a pistol/revolver isnt legal there. BUT IANAL

The info about Georgia resident being able to carry in SC with a FLa. Permit is not right, unless SC just changed their reciprocity laws. A Ga. resident can not go get a non-resident license from Fla. or any state and legally carry in SC.

South Carolina will only honor permits from residents of the states they honor.

They will not honor a non resident permit from any state.



I wish it was that easy.

pistol permits

you can only blame yourselves[not you personally but your ancesters.]the laws were placed to prevent blacks from carrying unfortunatly they also roped in every one,in the north it was to keep the political party in power.SC is not to bad but the concealed law means concealed and you could end in jail if someone claimed he was terrified because they saw a bulge.It is amazing that M Edited to Remove Profanity ----Edited to Remove Profanity ----Edited to Remove Profanity ---- law is a permit to carry not a concealed carry.so printing does not matter.and VT has no laws.:huh::rolleyes:

In SC you can carry a cwp on school grounds in your vehicle or person as long as you don't get out of the vehicle and the school road or pick up area is attached to a main road. This per SLED.
