You'll actually get a small boost from having a NC permit. It's honored in a few more states than SC (38 states in all), and as of 1 October, you'll be able to carry into restaurants serving alcohol, as well as onto school grounds, so long as it remains in your car, which must be locked then if you leave it. There are some other things coming, but that's all stuff available on the Conceal Carry thread about the new NC laws just signed into law this month. Enjoy NC conceal carry, and welcome to our state!
