Update: Looks like someone in SLED got the word. They have removed the map showing what states that honored their permit that showed WA, DE, NH and CO honoring the SC permit when they didn’t. Hoping they put it back but with the correct listing. I didn’t hear from them so someone out there must have made contact that got their attention. Thank You! Gary Slider

You can see that on the first map on SC Law Enforcement Division (SLED) site at which shows which states they honor. This brings to 29 the number of states South Carolina honors.
SLED

There is a major problem on the SLED 2nd map which shows states they are saying honors the South Carolina Concealed Weapons Permit. They are showing Colorado, Nevada, New Hampshire and Washington honor their License. These 4 states do not honor the South Carolina Permit. So be aware SC Permit Holders as what SLED is stating could get you arrested when you believed you were perfectly legal. You can see that for yourself at the links below. I have used their contact email to tell them of these errors and have left voice mail with those who are in charge of this and have received no replies. With these major errors on who honors them I am concerned there may be errors in who they honor. You can contact SLED at [email protected] or at 803.896.7015

Colorado - Page not found | Colorado Bureau of Investigation

Nevada - The resource cannot be found. State listx(16 July 21).pdf

New Hampshire - Page Not Found | NH State Police This really doesn’t matter as NH is a Permitless Carry State but they shouldn’t list it as a state that honors the SC CWP when they don’t.

Washington - Concealed Pistol License Reciprocity | Washington State

SLED is also reporting that Utah doesn’t honor the South Carolina CWP. Utah honors all other states permit/licenses. https://bci.utah.gov/concealed-firea...-other-states/

Oh, how I wish we had gotten a national reciprocity law enacted, but I think that is just a pipe dream.

I pasted this in more than one Firearms Forum and the links work in the other ones. I think S&W shortens the URLs and they don't work. So I tried again.

Nevada - Carry Concealed Weapon (CCW) Permit

New Hampshire - Pistol and Revolver Licensing | NH State Police

dockmurgw,

You are correct when it comes to New Hampshire but you must remember that all Permitless Carry States are not all equal. Maine for instance doesn't allow those carrying under permitless carry to carry in their state parks! To carry in Acadia Nat. Park. Their Parking lot storage laws don't apply and you can't carry while hunting. To do those four things in Maine you have to have a permit Maine Issues or Honors and Maine even though a permitless carry state doesn't honor all other states permits/licenses.

In Arizona though a permitless carry state and they do honor all other states but if you don't have a permit issued by any state you can not legally carry into a place that serves alcohol for consumption on the premises. That requires a permit/license.

In West Virginia I can drive onto a K-12 school property and keep my firearm on my hip but if you don't have a permit WV Issues or Honors if you do that you are an instant felon! Also WV even thought a permitless carry state doesn't honor all other states permit/licenses.

Then in some states you have to inform if carrying under permitless carry but don't have to if you have a permit they issue or honor. There are just a lot of pitfalls in the laws of the different states.

A National Carry Permit would be better. As it is, every state has differing standards, thus, seemingly random, and ever changing reciprocity.

I'm waiting on my Arizona non-resident permit. But even that and Washington Resident still won't cover Oregon or CA.
