Printing

Obviously it's not something you want, but if you do, is it a SC CWP violation? Is it brandishing? If not, how bad is it?

Brandishing, by definition, is the actual display of your weapon in an aggressive manner in order to threaten or intimidate someone else. That is a SC Gun Law violation.

Printing may cause you trouble (ie. That man has a gun) but 95% of the people out there aren't going to even be sure what they've seen. Worst case, you're explaining yourself to an LEO and you can then go home and write a post for on this forum.

Well, that's pretty much what I was thinking also.

Is that a gun in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me? --Maye West--

Modern medicine is amazing these days.... lots of folks have a bulge under their shirt on one side or the other.... doctors love to replumb ......

I often carry a small pistol in a side bag on my belt... one of my favorite ways to do this is to have a cell phone in one of the pockets showing.

Print away! That's one thing you don't have to worry about in SC unless you are in a place that you are not supposed to be. :wink:

 

[blume357@]

there's the rub... I'm often in places I not supposed to be.

Was at the dog park the other day and a Akita jump my female Sheppard. I had to break it up while wearing a shoulder holster. Of course my 1911 butt came out of hiding from the jacket I was wearing. NOT a big thing, the owner of the other dog didn't say anything. Not sure though, if he didn't because I was carrying or just not sure if I was some kind of LOE or nut case.

What's a "LOE"?

I'm sure he actually meant "LEO" as in law enforcement officer.....

At best you would be operating in a gray area. You could probably be charged with public disorderly conduct. Public disorderly conduct is an offense that is whatever the local jurisdiction says it is and means what ever the LEO arresting you wants it to mean. The maximum fine for public disorderly conduct is $1025 or thirdy days in jail.

Sure about that?


SECTION 16-17-530. Public disorderly conduct.
Any person who shall (a) be found on any highway or at any public place or public gathering in a grossly intoxicated condition or otherwise conducting himself in a disorderly or boisterous manner, (b) use obscene or profane language on any highway or at any public place or gathering or in hearing distance of any schoolhouse or church or (c) while under the influence or feigning to be under the influence of intoxicating liquor, without just cause or excuse, discharge any gun, pistol or other firearm while upon or within fifty yards of any public road or highway, except upon his own premises, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction shall be fined not more than one hundred dollars or be imprisoned for not more than thirty days.


Seems to be a pretty well defined charge to me and the fine is no where near $1025.
