Constitutional Carry tracker.

Between MA, PA, and CC, my map looks a lot like that. I can't carry in RI or CT, but can in the rest of New England. A lot of states in the south recognize every other states permits. SC is a big exception to that, but does recognize permits from a lot of other southern states.
I'm not sure that it is the case that SC is stingy with reciprocity. Reciprocity is a mutual agreement between two states. It might be that many states won't enter a reciprocity agreement with SC because SC doesn't issue nonresident CWPs. You must be a resident or property owner of SC. So much for the Constitutional prohibition of denying privileges to citizens of the other states. 🤬

From an article published June 2016:

On Friday something very unusual happened. South Carolina passed a law that was signed in by Gov. Nikki Haley and went into effect on Friday June 3rd. The law granted reciprocity to Georgia in South Carolina. South Carolina's policy has been to only honor permits from states that have similar or higher training standards which did not include Georgia because Georgia does not require any training to obtain a permit.

However, local permit holders in South Carolina have been complaining to law makers for years about how frustrating it has been to not be able to carry their concealed handguns into Georgia. Georgia's policy has been to only grant reciprocity to states that honor their own permit. Thus based on the two states policies there had been no reciprocity between them until now.



SOURCE: South Carolina and Georgia Now Have Permit Reciprocity
 
SC recognizes permits from several other states, but only if they are resident permits. For example, if I lived in FL and had a FL resident permit, I'd be good. Part of that is also the SC training requirements. An example of that is both PA and AL. Both have no training requirements at all. Of course MA does, but MA doesn't recognize any other permits as you no.

Privileges or Immunities was killed by the Slaughterhouse case well over 100 years ago. Justice Thomas wanted to resurrect it in (I think) McDonald, but he was the only one.

More likely it is because of this phrase in SC law:

Title 23 said:
(N)(1) Valid out-of-state permits to carry concealable weapons held by a resident of a reciprocal state must be honored by this State, provided, that the reciprocal state requires an applicant to successfully pass a criminal background check and a course in firearm training and safety. A resident of a reciprocal state carrying a concealable weapon in South Carolina is subject to and must abide by the laws of South Carolina regarding concealable weapons. SLED shall maintain and publish a list of those states as the states with which South Carolina has reciprocity.
So for example while NH would be happy to reciprocate, SC will not recognize NH PRLs.
 
@Supermoto's right.

I have multiple permits, with my two primary ones being GA and CT because I live in those two states.
Here's a comparison of where I can carry as a licensed GA resident .vs. a licensed CT resident:


GEORGIA PERMIT ONLY:

CT PERMIT ONLY

And here's a map of where I can carry using all of my permits, (GA, CT, UT, FL, NH). I'm still landlocked in CT.

Your reply belongs in the Where Government Lets Me thread.
 
Needs to pass to help fortify GA from going blue. It will discourage lefties from wanting to move to the state.

It passed out of a senate committee in Alabama too. It passed the senate last year in Hama, died in the house. Hopefully they get it done this year along with Georgia and SC. NC will once the shitbag governor is gone.

In South Carolina, CC died in the Senate when nine RINOs voted with the Democrats. One of the offenders has since died meaning we need to primary four of the remaining eight RINOs. The Governor has said he would sign the bill.
 
I think the sheriffs opposed it because it's a source of revenue for the counties.

Not the source but one of their sources. Some sheriffs use their office to hand out nonsense jobs to their election supporters etc.

Wasn’t the guy who died very old and in office for decades? In some of the southern states, the dem party was in control forever after the civil war so post 1960s a lot of dems switched to the GOP. Even thought they’re GOP on paper, there’s a lot of statism in their views still. They think they’re better than commoners and want to control them still. They’re almost all60 or older. The younger generations of GOP are the ones pushing these bills and changing the old south.

That's a myth. The South didn't start consistently voting GOP until Reagan's 2nd term into the 90s. The left likes to throw that lie out there because of Nixon's wins.

It started to shift in the 60s, LBJs great society socialist BS started it. It accelerated in the 1980s and Obama took care of the remaining areas. Arkansas , Louisiana, etc were still dem states in 2000. As late as 2012, West Virginia was almost completely democrat. Both senators, state house, governor, statewide offices, etc. at the start of the 2000s, dems still had senators from FL, AR, GA, SC, LA,

Dems have gone so far left, they’re a CA, north east corridor party now. Tester still being the senator in MY bothers me, he’s a leftist twit. Hopefully he, manchin and the ones in PA, WI and Michigan get defeated in 2024.

There is some truth to this. Could I quantify it with numbers and demographics? Maybe, if I weren't too lazy to look it up.

Yes, the late Sen. Hugh Leatherman was old and had been there forever. His absence will change SC politics far beyond his single vote. I could dig deep into the weeds to give you the inside baseball of SC politics but it would derail this thread on a Yankee forum. :cool:

The bottom line is that we need to primary the RINOs in our midst and turn a few blue seats red.

If everyone sweeps in front of their own door, soon the whole world will be clean.

Like most of the Old South, GA is traditionally D. The generation that believed "Democrats are for the little people!" is slowly dying off, but sometimes it takes more than one generation.

In many of those southern satiates, national dems for president, Nate, etc get smoked in elections but local mayors and sometimes governors win. Manchin is an example of the hatred for national dems but they are ok with the less crazy local politician. It’s definitely changing, Obama and the 2010 election cleared a lot of them out but there are still remnants
 
The Alabama House passed it today. The leadership is making it a priority, so right now things look promising.


I believe the prospects look better in Indiana this year too.

I'd settle for SC changing their non resident permitting process, but of course Constitutional Carry would fix that as well.

Meanwhile Ohio could finally get CC as well as Indiana. Florida would be nice, but doesn't seem to be prominent on the radar for this. Then again neither did Texas until it was.

Passing it will help keep Ohio sane. Constitutional Carry helps scare off locusts from liberal states.
