Hi, I am thinking of moving to Charleston, South Carolina or possibly even North Carolina. More likely I would be leaning to living in coastal area of South Carolina. I have considered FLorida aswell, but the more I read about it, the more I just don't feel it woudl be ideal for me.
Anyhow, I am wondering if people can tell me the situation with long distance rifle ranges (like 600yd+) in Charleston, SC area or areas around Charlotte, NC. I have not done much investigation yet in Charlotte but I want to check it out or the surrounding areas. Any other suggestions by people of good places to live in South Carolina that have decent shooting facilities and rifle ranges nearby?
Also, I was wondering if anyone knows about the conceal carry handgun laws in SC and NC. My main quesiton is how hard is it to get an out-of-state conceal carry permit for North Carolina if I live in South Carolina and to get a South Carolina handgun permit if I live in North Carolina. The reason I ask is I can see myself travelling back and forth. Like, if I move to Charleston, I can picture myself couple times a month maybe going to Charlotte and I would like to have the ability to have a conceal handgun with me.
I have been carrying a gun with me for over year and half and I hate to be in situation where i am not allowed to carry a gun.. Havent left Pacific NW in over 5 years, except for brief overseas trip. It will be strange leaving the state, but I know its time to move on.
Anyway, I am interested in hearing from people in the area. I am not 100% on where I will move, still pondering different places, but from reading about South Carolina, it really seems like a nice state would good gun laws.
If there is anything you think I don't know about the place, that i shoudl know, I like to know as well.
