Once you actually in live SC and have a valid SC drivers license you can buy a pistol. I was in 10th Mountain Div when it first reactivated. The gun laws here are nothing like NY. You don't have to register pistols, you can do FTF  sells. You can carry a loaded pistol in your car (glove box, console) without a carry permit. These are just a few of the differences. There is a private gun club with ranges just south of Spartanburg and a free public range about 20 miles further south in Union.

some gun shops won't sell you a gun if your driver's license is less than 90 days old. I don't know why, but I've heard of a few.
