Bars, alcohol and lawful concealed carry |
|

The subject of bar carry has interestingly been a split decision item for so called 2A supporters.
In a handful of states it's a lawful act to do so such as in of all places MA (!).
Many other places around the nation though it is an unlawful act to do so.
Then there is VA and the 'VA tuck' requiring open displayed carry only.
I have and do carry everywhere I can as when ever I can, lawfully.
Last night I got a call from the husband of the director at the pre-school where my daughter used to go, and my son will be going next year. His wife is also at my invitation a new board member among the community volunteer organization that I am chair and president of.
He heard from his wife that I like to go out and do guy stuff, including play pool and watch movies.
All truths.
He noted that he and several o f his friends from his zone, 2 towns and 30 minutes away, would like to do same and was wondering... [Read More]

Any way for GA resident to CCW in SC? |
|
Nov 20, 2009 - 3:59 PM - by Biomortis

I have scanned through the laws, the forums, the handgunlaw.us and as far as I can tell, there is no way for me to legally carry in South Carolina. I live on the state line in Georgia and often have business there so it would be very beneficial to carry.
If I have read properly, SC will only grant a non-resident permit if you still own property in SC but reside in another state. Also, they do not honor any other state non-resident permits.
So, short of buying property in SC which I am obviously not going to do, have I missed anything that would qualify me for a permit?

Why would I need an outstate permit? |

Nov 20, 2009 - 3:34 PM - by basher052

This thread may exist already, but for the benifet of the newer folks on the forum, what is the need for a CHL from another state? Are there advantages and disadvantages to haveing multiple? I live in TX and, though I dont have mine yet (please pm me if you are a CHL instructor in the Houston area ), i realize that a TX permit will allow carry in most states though not all.
Please add comments. Thanks

Yes officer, I have weapons you need to be aware of |

Here's a common theme I see here all the time.
"They said, 'Do you have any weapons.?'" he said. "I think out of respect for officers, if an officer says, 'Hey, do you have any weapons in your truck or your vehicle?' you should tell them. It's an officer safety thing."
Despite how much you assure yourself of your legal rights, and all this concern for this nice officer's safety, think long and hard before you answer that question.

Practice Carrying Concealed: An Interesting Perspective
"...Start packing without the mental discipline, and you will fail the 'ALWAYS' test...."
by David Woodbury
Editor's Note:
This article by David Woodbury is aimed toward those who have not yet reached a point of confidence to carry concealed even though they have a permit to do so. It is better to build up one's confidence even if one has to practice carrying a concealed mock weapon (if legally permitted in your area). No need for emails about how temporarily carrying a mock or empty weapon is useless. Never carrying at all due to lack of confidence in one's abilities is permanently useless.
It bears repeating: Practice handling and shooting your gun before you need to use it. But if you're going to carry concealed, practice CARRYING... [Read More]
