Yes, you are perfectly legal to OC in NC coming from Va. or any other state as far as that is concerned. No special requirements, except for Chapel Hill, where I believe they have the 6" rule, stating from tip of barrel to furthest tip of grip has to be a minimum of 6" in order to OC.

Just a clarification on Chapel Hill.
They don't measure the longest distance for the length. The measurement is greater than 6'' from the tip of the barrel to the imaginary line that the back of the grip makes with the slide. If your weapon doesn't have a grip, then it is 6'' min from end to where you hold it.

A glock 19/23/32 is 6.8'' with their measuring system.
