    First trip to a state (SC) that doesn't honor my CCL (AL)

    Al Thompson - thanks for the heads up. I found out that the venue for the event is managed by the public school system and is considered school property, so that pretty much nixes bringing a firearm. Thanks again for all replies to this thread.

    First trip to a state (SC) that doesn't honor my CCL (AL)

    Plan2Live - thanks for the detailed information. Those are impressive credentials, so I'd say you know quite a bit! You're right, I do tend to "overthink" things when it comes to firearms and weapons laws. But being wrong and violating SC law can, according to SECTION 16-23-5, result in...

    Counting break-in and an Appleseed Shoot a few weeks ago, I have right at 700 rounds through my 795 using 5 different magazines. I've experienced no FTF's or jams, and the last shot hold-open has always worked.
