None Resident permit question

[GottaBeAh.40]

Does anyone know what state will allow a none resident, who does not own property in that state to apply for a CCP/CCL that is hononed by the state of South Carolina?

Thanks

Check the recprocity map. e.g. I have a FL CWL and live in AR. Many states will honor my permit. Only a few do not recognize it, and a few more will only accept a permit if it is a resident permit.

South Carolina only accepts permits from residents of the issuing state. They do not accept non-resident permits from any state.

Not quite true. South Carolina will issue a permit if you own property in that state. Therefore you do not have to be a resident of that state. Just own property. It is true that they do not recognize non-resident permits of other states. S Carolina does not recognize my Pa. resident permit. They will also not recognize my Florida non-resident permit which I hope to receive soon. They are a bit backlogged.

Pennsylvania gives carry permits to non residents. So do some other states. The qualifier is that you must have a carry permit from the state you reside in. S Carolina does not recognize non resident permits except their own >>> see above post

Thanks for that info. I have mine in Georgia, but per the map, SC doesnt honor it. Thanks again..

Wasn't talking about a South Carolina permit. My statement was that they would not accept non-resident permits from other states. The only permits they accept (other than theirs) are those issued to residents of the issuing state that has reciprocity.

Kinda nice here in Vermont as we do not need a permit.As long as you can legally own/obtain a firearm,you can carry.Just have to follow fed guidelines(NO carry in schools,gov buildings/post office,etc.)The downfall is no other states will recognize that,except Alaska

On a positive note, in SC one may keep a loaded handgun in the glovebox or console box of his vehicle even without a CC permit of any sort.

You can't carry within 1000 feet of school zone. Is there a school zone map for Vermont? I spend a lot of time in the high peaks area of the Adirondacks and have thought of wondering over to Vermont.

At this time in Louisiana a Florida non-resident CCW permit is allowed but there is a BIG push by the State Legislation to no longer honor any non-resident CCW permits.

 

[GOV5]

I started to take issue with you on that statement, but then I remembered my own mantra...if the state has only ONE place on it's list, the list is too long! LOL!!

Don't take my word on how Louisiana is trying to change it's laws on non-resident CCW Permits. Check out this link at Bayou Shooter's website: FL Non-resident - BayouShooter.com Forums - So far it's not a done deal but from all I've read it looks as if it's heading that way. The primary target so far seems to be the Florida non-resident permits.

The primary issues of concern in LA is the lack of firearms training necessary to get a FL non-resident CCW Permit, as well as LA not really knowing how many of it's citizens are carrying FL non-resident permits.

I wish they would just, honestly and fairly, make a national carry permit system. I would not have to worry about this state-to-state business anymore!:fie:

Off topic, but I just wanted to thank you for your service in Viet Nam. An older brother of mine was KIA there in 1967. Con Thien province.

That doesn't make much sense. With the exception of FL having the additional option of using Hunter Safety...the training standards seem to be the same.

I didn't enter into this conversation to argue with anyone. The information I posted here comes from Bayou Shooters website where the forum about non-resident CCW Permits is a hot topic, and especially Florida's non-resident CCW Permits. I am just passing on information about the bill before the Louisiana Legislature and the almost overwhelming support found at Bayou Shooters site. Many of the posters to that web site are current or former LEO's who know what they are talking about. Do not take your refusal to acknowledge the information I post here out on me. Another issue posted at Bayou Shooter is that all one has to do is submit their DD Form 214, regardless of how old it is. Mine was from back in 1972 and Florida accepted it. I have taken several very involved firearms courses over the years so I am current on Louisiana laws dealing with carrying a concealed handgun and have been carrying a concealed handgun for years. Go to Bayou Shooters website and read for yourself if you take issue with what I've posted here. A couple of months ago the top cop in Louisiana issued a mandate stating that affectively immediately Louisiana would no be honoring Florida non-resident CCW Permits. One or two days later he retracted the document. Now this issue is up for debate and we should find out soon what the verdict will be.

Thank you....

I appreciate your acknowledging my military service. You have my heartfelt sympathy for the loss of your brother.

Sir. If you were referring to my post....I am not looking to argue either. It was not meant to sound that way.

I was merely pointing out that the training standards seem to be the same between FL and LA so I don't see how LA can say FL's standards are lacking. LA will also accept a DD214...no specified date range.

I am neither a LA nor a FL resident, so I don't know all of the "ins and outs" of the respective laws...just what is posted on their websites.
