South Carolina: Legislature Adjourns Sine Die

On Thursday, May 8th, the South Carolina Legislature adjourned sine die from the 2025 legislative session. This was the first year of the two-year legislative session, meaning bills will carry over and be eligible for consideration in 2026. Anti-gun legislation saw little movement and remained in the committees of origin. Two noteworthy NRA supported bills have passed the House, H.3872 and H.3930, and will be eligible for consideration in the Senate when the legislature returns in 2026. 

Both House Bill 3872 (H.3872), the Hunting Heritage Protection Act, and House Bill 3930 (H.3930), the Second Amendment Financial Privacy Act, passed the House this session and will remain eligible for consideration by the Senate next legislative session.

H.3872 requires the state Department of Natural Resources (DNR) to adopt policies and procedures that ensure there is no net loss of department managed land for hunting and fishing in South Carolina. Further, it requires DNR to submit a report each year citing the acreage closed to hunting during the previous year as well as the acreage opened to hunting to compensate for those closures. Protection of hunting lands for future generations is of the utmost importance to the NRA, to sportsmen, and to conservation across the Palmetto State.

H.3930 would prohibit the use of firearm and ammunition-specific Merchant Category Codes, which could be used to track firearm and ammunition purchases and create a registry of lawful gun and ammunition buyers. Further, it includes an enforcement mechanism that allows the South Carolina Attorney General to pursue legal remedies against entities that violate these provisions. The NRA strongly supports protecting the financial privacy of all lawful gun and ammunition purchasers in South Carolina and is actively working with willing lawmakers on amendments to provide further protections for firearm retailers and gun owners. 

Your NRA will be back in Columbia for the 2026 session. Please stay tuned to the NRA-ILA website and your inbox for further updates on issues impacting your Second Amendment rights and hunting heritage.
