I have looked through documents provided by the Information Officer for the NC State Police and through the state code and never explicitly found anything prohibiting it. There could be local ordinances regulating the discharm of firearms for each individual municipality though.

As I was going about some errands today, one thing I thought about was that being a hunting regulation. In Virginia, hunting is not permitted on Sundays. However, you can still go outdoors to your own range on your property and put some lead downrange, if you feel so inclined and provided the locality does not regulate the discharge of those firearms.
