I am a VA resident and I have my CHP for Virginia.
This summer I will be going to Myrtle Beach, SC for a few days. I want to make sure I know the law before I carry my firearms with me to my vacation spot. I checked on the opencarry.org maps and on the SC LED site.
Section 16-23-20 (9) and (12)
It seems open carry is only permitted with a loaded firearm “in your car but only in a glove box or console.” – this is “open”? :banghead:
SC does have reciprocity with VA for concealed carry, which means I do not need to stow my firearm in my glovebox or console while driving or as a passenger in a vehicle.
According to another thread I read that:
So I CANNOT carry OC anywhere but I can carry concealed while I am there. I cannot carry OC or CC into any restaurant/bar that serves alcohol.
Is this correct? Would anyone be willing to check my links and let me know if I’ve read or interpreted any of this incorrectly?
Thanks!

In SC you can't carry in ANY business that sells alcohol for the purpose of consumption on it's premises. It's very frustrating that no one is allowed to protect themselves or their family, legally, if they want to go out to eat.
