Read more at Truth about Guns. In another posting on this forum Washington Gun Law channel suggests this may be last one likely to pass such a law. The others are too 'blue' read anti-2A.
South Carolina is inching closer to implementing a law that would enable residents to carry guns openly without a permit, a discussion that seemed to have hit a standstill but is now actively progressing in the state legislature. This movement comes after a decisive vote in the state House, marking a pivotal step forward for the permitless carry bill.
In a recent session, the House demonstrated strong support for the bill, with an 86-33 vote predominantly split along party lines; the majority of Republicans voted in favor, while Democrats largely opposed the measure. (What’s new?!?) Simultaneously, the Senate engaged in discussions regarding the bill, albeit delaying a final vote to address amendments related to the judicial election process.
Anticipation is building around the governor’s office, with expectations high that the bill will be signed into law.
