Answer
Totally wrong. I just asked you question and you took the attitude that i was disagreeing with you. you took the attitude that you read me what you read and refused to answer the question. i never said it was my opinion and I did not dis agree with you you did not answer my question. I believe you took the childish remark of "well, you must be right then". but i would not expect anything else from a young'un. when young people take the attitued that they know everything they will crash one day. BTW how old are you 23, 24? Why did you put young man in dubs, you are a very young man
are you ready to answer the question now? Are you allowed to carry open in a municipality park? are you allowed to carry in a athletic field?
BTW you can carry in a school, if you have the principle or the school board's permission
How do you think all those shooting clubs in Forsyth county does it
sorry I had a computer malfunction. but don't take offense you are very young. Thanks for the cite I book marked it so hopefully i can find it again. still didn't see where you could OC or not
I did answer your question and read you the law simply because you continued to disagree and you did disagree for the record. After I read you the law you got quiet and buried your head into your tablet and I may be younger than you however I even know that that was poor table manners especially in a group setting. You are incorrect about my age however it is irrelevant to the conversation and isn't your business. Also, quotations (dubs) are taught in English classes as something used to quote or set off a direct phrase or speech (i.e. what you called me, "young man.") You may also see here:

In regards to open carry in a municipal park:
* Again, per the law I read you at dinner and I'll quote (please remember quotation marks,) from NCGS 14-415.11 c(1) "Any person who has a concealed handgun permit may carry a concealed handgun on the grounds or waters of a park within the State Parks System as defined in G.S. 113-44.9" Law clearly states you may carry CONCEALED handgun if you have the permit to carry, since the law specifically states concealed we may not open carry.
* The law does state in NCGS 14-415.11 c(3) that you may open carry in certain state areas, although not in parks "As provided in G.S. 14-269.4(5), it shall be lawful for a person to carry any firearm openly, or to carry a concealed handgun with a concealed carry permit, at any State-owned rest area, at any State-owned rest stop along the highways, and at any State-owned hunting and fishing reservation."
* Also, if you're still unsure NCGS 113-44.9 further defines the words referenced to in NCGS 14-415.11
In regards to carry in athletic field:
* You need to read House Bill 937 that I posted above it is another law I had at the dinner that you saw was from 2013. It talks about athletic fields and where it falls under recreational facility which like I said Friday is up to the municipality they may adopt ordinances. I was saying that HB 937 provides statewide uniformity so municipalities, cities, townships, villages and etc. can't pass laws or ordinances in regards to legal carry except for provided in what is defined under athletic field falling under recreational facility. I also read it to you so you could see that the state (awesome for us) made sure to define it very well so that the city couldn't deem just anything as a recreational facility. So the answer is different for each locale which is why I tried to make you understand the law, you have to check with each locale to know but they are different.
In regards to carry in schools:
* First you informed us that you carry in schools on occasion and conceal carry and that you have allegedly received permission from the principle. No where in the law is there a clause or exemption from criminal liability for having permission from a principle in the following law I reference to.
* Shooting clubs don't carry per say in school they use firearms for ceremonial and instructional purposes, they aren't carrying guns holstered, open or concealed in the facility necessarily. What follows you can read at this link:
http://www.ncdoj.gov/getdoc/32344299-a2a7-4ae5-99fd-9018262f64ac/NC-Firearms-gun-Laws.aspx The following is from page 24 of the NCDOJ Firearm Law Updated September of 2014;
"The aforementioned prohibitions will not apply to:
a. A weapon used solely for educational or school sanctioned ceremonial purposes, or
used in a school approved program conducted under the supervision of an adult,
whose supervision has been approved by the school authority"
* You may not carry in schools however if you have a permit to carry you lock it in your car and you have to keep the car locked immediately upon entering or exiting. The following is from page 26 of the NCDOJ Firearm Law Update September of 2014;
"i. A person who has a valid concealed handgun permit, or is exempt from obtaining a
permit, who has a handgun in a closed compartment or container within the person’s
locked vehicle or the handgun is in a locked container securely affixed to the person’s
vehicle. This individual may unlock the vehicle to enter or exit the vehicle provided
the firearm remains in the closed compartment at all times and the vehicle is locked
immediately following the entrance or exit of the vehicle"
I hope this answers your questions and that I have supplied you with enough references. If not you NEED to do some research of your own. I may be a young firearms instructor however I am very passionate about my rights to carry and day in and day out read books on the topic and laws. I have attended many NRA courses as well as North Carolina DOJ's legal course and keep in touch with Congress and Senate thus keeping me current on the laws so I can further my knowledge making me a responsible and safe firearm owner.
