SLED in SC has updated their reciprocity list to include resident Florida CCWs.

I reviewed the law on their site, and I want to confirm the following:

  1. You can carry in a roadside restroom, since they are not on the prohibited list of places.
  2. There is no indication that one must notify a LEO when stopped.
Can someone from South Carolina confirm that I did not miss something?

I am very happy that Florida is now on the list. Putting my traveling companion into the glove box/console was a pain, especially when my wife and I would spit the drive between Florida and Western Pennsylvania. Many times she would drive from SC into NC and VA, and given that I would be asleep when we crossed the SC/NC line, she would be in technical non-compliance (no CCW) when the car was in NC.

1. you can carry concealed into a SC Rest Area. As long as you hold a recognized permit

2. Yes you do need to notify in SC
