It looks like I may be moving to Aiken, SC within the next month for work and I'm reading up on state gun laws.  I currently have a CCWP in the state of WV.  I know that SC has reciprocity with WV however I'm unsure of how soon I'll have to get a SC permit?  Will I have to take another training/safety course in SC?  Also, I noticed that SC requires that if it's a first time permit, the course must be taken within 3 years of issuance.  I'll technically be a first time issuance in SC, or will they honor my WV Permit and training course?  


Any help would greatly be appreciated! Thanks.

Constitutional Carry just past unanimously out of committee and is headed for a full vote, where it is expected to pass.

All you will need is the constitution in a matter of weeks or more.

Until then, I don't know about the reciprocity with your old state.

Thanks.

According to South Carolina's Law Enforcement Division website SC and WV have reciprocity LINK.  My main concern is how soon do I need to renew?  Upon expiration of my current CCWP or as soon as I permanently change my address?  Also, I'm curious if I'll have to retake the safety course in order to get a "new" SC CCWP (according to their website all new applicants must have a training certificate within 3 years however it doesn't mention anything about residents who had one prior).

Once your driver's license address doesn't match your CCW address in a move from out of state, your permit is defunct.

SC is anal (for now) about the training, so you will need to take the local class, IMHO.

That's what I was afraid of.  Thanks!
