Hello,
I am taking to trip to NC and want to know an accurate, simple, clear and concise document for determing the CCW laws in NC. The prohibited places, the need to notify officer, rifle transport, etc...

Thanks

This may not be what you're looking for but clear and concise on the internet usually means someone's interpretation. That's not a good defense. The best place to learn about a particular state's statutes is to research the statutes themselves.

A quick look indicates that NC is fairly permissive in regards to firearms. I was going to suggest the NC DPS website but it looks like in NC, individual sheriff's offices administrate CCW permits IF they are even required. That would still be a good resource to check, however.

www.handgunlaw.us is a great informative site

handgunlaws.us is good

Here's a handy chart of prohibited carry places from NC DOJ http://ncja.ncdoj.gov/getdoc/a...ad531f0a2/NCCHC.aspx

Here's a more recent chart from NC DOJ http://ncja.ncdoj.gov/getdoc/4...Citizens-for-NC.aspx

NC Dept of Justice

North Carolina Firearms Laws

Check the specific city you are going to.

Here's a list of and links to statutes, put together by a member of the NC Gun Owners forum http://www.ncgunowners.com/for...thread.php?tid=21209

And this summarizes the self-defense laws:

North Carolina stand your ground law is addressed in NCGS § 14-51.2 and § 14-51.3 and are summarized below:

A person is justified in the use of deadly force and does not have a duty to retreat in any place he or she has the lawful right to be if either of the following applies:

You reasonably believe that such force is necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another; or
You are in your home, vehicle or workplace and that the person against whom the defensive force was used was an unlawful intruder or was attempting to forcibly and unlawfully enter one of the above.

And, a person who uses force per the above is immune from civil or criminal liability for the use of such force.
