Can non-residents obtain a CWP in South Carolina?

  1. Yes, if they own property in the state

  2. Yes, but only for military personnel

  3. No, only residents can obtain a CWP

  4. Yes, if they work in the state

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

Non-residents can obtain a CWP (Concealed Weapons Permit) in South Carolina if they own property in the state. This is because they technically have a residence in the state, even if it is not their primary one. Option B is incorrect because it limits the eligibility for obtaining a CWP to military personnel only, which is not true. Option C is incorrect because non-residents can obtain a CWP in South Carolina. Option D is incorrect because it limits the eligibility for obtaining a CWP to only those who work in the state, which is not true.
