On my first trip down to Battery Oaks, I was wearing a tshirt, tucked, in and an open vest. I was carrying OWB so the vest was there to conceal the weapon.What I'm missing? You go and get a concealed carry permit and then you open carry? This just doesn't seem like a great step forward to me. Plain open carry would seem like a step forward. If I'm going to go through all the trouble of getting a concealed carry permit I'm carrying concealed.
Other states have had the same problem.On my first trip down to Battery Oaks, I was wearing a tshirt, tucked, in and an open vest. I was carrying OWB so the vest was there to conceal the weapon.
At a certain point, traffic stopped for construction on a two lane road. After a while, I jumped out for a smoke and began chatting with the guy in the car behind me. He noticed the gun and we began debating different firearms. As I understand the previous law, if we were in SC (not sure whether we’d crossed the line yet), I’d have been in violation because my gun was no longer “concealed”.
I think that’s what @BatteryOaksBilly means by printing issues.
This ^^^Just to be clear from this end....ALL here look at this as a positive. No more "printing" issues. That alone is a Great help.
The S.C. CWP regs before 1998 were amazing...I could carry ANYWHERE in the state of S.C. From 1975 to 1998 we had more authority to carry statewide than most LEs. When they opened it up to everybody that could qualify they absolutely Gutted the CWPs we had. I sat on juries with a Colt on my side, literally I could carry Everywhere.Honestly, the open carry benefit is small beans when it comes at the cost of erosion of the other benefits we had before this law.

This^^ to say I have been in from the beginning. Everytime they "give," they feel Obligated to Munk with the regs in place.
Having been in from the beginning the "printing" issue has always been a problem. This solved that...that is a Plus....Maybe with enough Money we can get a Constitutional Carry Law...first I've got to work to get rid of 2 Horry county Senators.....I'm On It.
So your issue is signage...to which I say to you ...Pfffttttt! Watermellons!
