Current Law
South Carolina Open Carry Law for CCDW Permit Holders
Bill Link: H3094
Effective Date: 8/15/2021
Overview: A law went into effect allowing all South Carolina concealed weapon permit holders to open carry firearms. The law also includes provisions to review and prohibit state enforcement of federal laws that limit carrying firearms.
A large bipartisan coalition introduced House Bill 3094 (H3094). Under the new law, all South Carolina concealed weapon permit holders can openly and visibly carry firearms in public, where allowed by law. The bill also waives the $50 fee for open carry permit license and training.
The Senate passed H3094 by a 28-16 vote. The House gave final approval by an 83-34 vote. With Gov. McMaster’s signature, the law went into effect on August 15, 2021.
While state bills loosening restrictions on carrying firearms do not directly affect federal gun control, the widespread passage of laws like this subtly undermines federal efforts to regulate guns. As we’ve seen with marijuana and industrial hemp, a federal regulation becomes ineffective when states ignore it and pass laws encouraging the prohibited activity anyway. The federal government lacks the enforcement power necessary to maintain its ban, and people will willingly take on the small risk of federal sanctions if they know the state will not interfere. This increases when the state actively encourages “the market.”
