There is increasingly no reason why you should not carry a firearm at all times when outside your home.

More and more states are now "constitutional carry" states, meaning that, for most states, you need not have to "register" or comply with any licensing, training or permitting schemes to carry a concealed firearm.

(Although I would still highly recommend training at the hands of a knowledgeable and or certified firearms instructor to learn how to handle, carry, store and shoot a sidearm, along with the legal and civil limits, laws and consequences of a defensive shooting)

The manufacturers have a wide range and selection of carry handguns of types.

Find one that suits your needs and skill and budget...and get cracking.



South Carolina on Track to Become 27th Constitutional Carry State

AWR HAWKINS 6 Apr 2023

South Carolina’s Senate Judiciary subcommittee advanced constitutional carry legislation Wednesday, keeping the state on track to become the 27th constitutional carry state in the Union.

On February 2, 2023, Breitbart News reported that South Carolina State Rep. Bobby Cox (R-Greenville) put forward H.3594 to secure constitutional carry in the state.

On February 23, 2023, NRA-ILA noted that the South Carolina House passed Cox’s legislation.

Now constitutional carry is moving through the South Carolina Senate. The Post and Courier observed that it passed out of the Senate Judiciary subcommittee by a 3-2 vote on April 5, 2023, and now goes to the full Judiciary Committee.

Breitbart News spoke with Cox about the constitutional carry legislation on April 6, 2023, and he said, “The Senate should not delay in passing H. 3954. The House version was a collaborative effort between 2A groups and law enforcement to restore our constitutional freedom and keep guns out of the hands of criminals.”

Currently, the Union has 26 constitutional carry states: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, West Virginia, and Wyoming. (Florida’s constitutional carry law takes effect July 1, 2023.)
 
I am approve these shenanigans - but that they are even even needful to begin with disgusts me. (When it comes to what the founders might think of states having to ratify "constitutional" carry one-by-one more than 230 years after the fact, I can only imagine the ghosts of the Anti-Federalists shaking their heads, rolling their eyes, and muttering "told you so".)
