Can non-residents apply for a South Carolina Concealed Weapons Permit?

  1. Yes, without any conditions

  2. Yes, if they own property in SC

  3. No

  4. Only if they are military personnel stationed in SC

The correct answer is: Yes, if they own property in SC

South Carolina does not explicitly state that non-residents can apply for a concealed weapons permit. However, out-of-state non-residents can still apply for a South Carolina concealed weapons permit if they own property within the state. This is because South Carolina law allows for concealed weapons permits to be granted to persons owning property in the state, even if they do not reside there. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not provide the condition that allows non-residents to apply for a South Carolina concealed weapons permit as stated in option B.
