Governor Henry McMaster Monday signed the Open Carry with Training Act into law.
On twitter, Governor McMaster announced his signing of the act into law and stated, “I will proudly support any legislation that protects or enhances a South Carolinian’s ability to exercise their 2nd Amendment rights, and that’s exactly what this bill does.”
The bill, which goes into affect 90 days from when it was signed into law on Monday, makes South Carolina a second amendment sanctuary state.
Along with this, it eliminates that $50 concealable weapon permit fee and allows those with a concealed weapon permit to openly carry a concealable weapon on them or in their motor vehicle unless explicitly stated otherwise by signage.
McMaster previously stated that he would sign the act "as soon as it gets to my desk."
