So I have an upcoming trip that will have my flying and traveling to 3 states (GA, SC, and FL). TSA and airline rules are easy enough. And I know all three states have reciprocity. As for the laws I know GA, this is where I spent the first 25 years of life, but SC and FL I'm not that up on. Any funky or foggy things to know about in these states?

...not that they'll reveal to outsiders...

...SC...recognizes TX permit carried by TX res...no non-res licenses recognized...; must inform LEO "when approached"...;no carry at medical care facilities, churches, or any private business that posts against conc. carry... http://www.sled.sc.gov/SCStateGunLaws1. ... nuID=CWP#6" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;


...FL...http://licgweb.doacs.state.fl.us/weapons/index.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ...no non-res licenses recognized...didn't read deeply enough to see if it's must-inform or not...lotta info...

Well, speedsix gave you the statutes and there is nothing more definitive than reading the actual law. However, since my non-lawyer pea-brain can also misunderstand what a statute is actually saying, I also like to refer to these two good sources to check out other state's laws are at:

...those sites and others are great quick references...but they ain't gonna bring me cookies and milk if they made a mistake and I get canned for it...I don't mind diggin' deep...it's easier'n shellin' out!!!

I don't view it as "either-or", I view it as "both-and".

I find it valuable to read the statutes, but also read the interpretation/summary of the statutes . . . helps my comprehension and helps me avoid missing something important.

But you are right about no cookies and milk. No one lining up to bake cakes with hacksaw blades either.
