In February next year we will be able to legally carry our guns in National Parks thanks to Section 512 of the Credit Card Act of 2009 (H.R. 627), so long as they are in compliance with the State's laws.

Open carry is not unlawful in North Carolina - I and John and lots of others did so extensively in NC in 2006 going to, at, and from, the Gun Rights Policy Conference in Charlotte - no problems at all, not even at the local WalMart while buying supplies for the OpenCarry.org reception.

NC is very close to being a Gold Star open carry state - the only problem is that localities are still permitted significant the power to ban gun carry in parks and governmental buioldings. I think that the park carry bans are vulnerable to attack under State v. Kerner.

North Carolina has converted into a Gold Star open carry state.
