Confused on CCW Reform bill

I have a question on the SC CCW reform bill. Will it affect those of us that have a SC permit and a non-resident permit from another state? For example, I have the SC resident permit and a NH non-resident. Will this affect the NH non-resident?
 
No it won't because nothing really changes the permit program. You'll have an option to not get a CWP and carry just in SC or to get/keep you CWP that has reciprocity with other states. As long as you keep you SC CWP your NH non resident permit will be good.
 
Correct! Keep your SC CWP so you can exercise your OC rights in Georgia and Tennessee. You know, where legislation works for the people.
 
Hey guys, don't listen to the Brady/VPC plant. He'll give you just enough facts to make himself believable.

For the facts look here. GrassRoots South Carolina - Our Goal: Citizens carrying arms whenever and wherever they choose. There is an update that should be posted soon.

Most of you know me here and know what I stand for. Just look at the facts and take what Grassroots releases with a grain of salt! For some reason they have decided to sabotage this bill! They have a deep hatred for the NRA and like a bunch of 2 year old kids throw a tantrum when they don't get what they want. If you look at the post by this member all he has done is belittle members and go against everything that has been said about this bill. If there ever was a Brady plant he/she would make a good one! Just look at this video and see how they have treated the very people that are trying to give us back some of our lost rights. No matter what they do Grassroots is never satisfied. There are too may good things in this bill to lose and I don't want Grassroots muck it up for us!

 
the problem with the bill as it is proposed with amendments is that it would make it illegal for anyone from out of state to have a handgun in S.C. unless they have a permit from their home state that is recognized by S.C.
Carry the way it is written in S.C. law also means to transport... which means folks with out a recognized permit from their home state will not be able to have a handgun in S.C. anywhere.... not in their glove box or even in their trunk unloaded.

Grassroots found this unacceptable... it is a clear violation of the 2nd amendment and it a big step backwards for gun rights. They, of which I belong, don't think we should throw out the rights of others to get a something else.

Stop confusing him, I mean some people, with the facts...

AGREED....
i have family members come into the state all the time some have permits that are reciprocal some don't.....my father has a Va permit my mother doesn't have any permit....if they come to visit me and my father leave a gun in the glove box and my mom runs to the store and happens to get stopped...she would be looking at a 10 year firearm violation according to this version of this bill.....or if say she borrowed one of my vehicles since i keep handguns in the consoles of some of them........again if stopped she would be in violation of the law......
** also under "possession laws" if she was in the passenger seat of my car she would be in "possession" of the gun in the glove box and even if i were driving...technically she could be charged......this is UNACCEPTABLE :mad:

if for no other reason this would be reason enough to vote this bill down as it now stands....
 
Unfortunately, this Viers guy royally screwed up the amendment he wrote to the original bill. I hope that he didn't do it intentionally, but it looks like he will not even admit to what he has done. I sure hope we get something positive out of this, but it is looking less likely by the day.
I am not a member of Grassroots, but I keep up with what they are doing through their Yahoo group. I appreciate what they do. The NRA does some good things nationally. They seem to endorse too many anti-gun candidates for my liking. They are less than worthless on a state level. I am still a member of the NRA. I like the magazines. I know that is not a very good reason.
I am still hoping for restaurant carry and I hope we get it this year. That and the parking lot bill are the top 2 on my wish list right now.
 
I agree Big Boom... I think the problem was the original bill had too much stuff in it... then Viers put his amendment in and I assume he did not realize what it would do.... I think they were trying to stop illegal aliens from carrying in S.C.... which is kind of stupid anyway since they by nature are illegal.

From where I sit... the real problem was Viers, as you stated, would not admit his amd. was flawed and wants to blame others for his mistake.

It sure would be nice to get the Restaurant carry thing in there...
 
I would like the restaurant bill but unless the parking lot bill is changed I am 100% against it and from some of the comments at the committee hearing on H.3292 it has no chance without those changes.

H.3292 is dead and I doubt that we see anything close to it for some time. At one time I thought it had a good chance but now I give it less than 5% of making it through the House and less than 1% through the Senate. After what has happened to Viers no one is going to touch it.
