After talking to several folks it seems that the NCWRC does not seem to know that there is an issue with carrying defensive firearms on gamelands. Right now you are restricted to .22 caliber during the non hunting days. Some seasons you can carry larger handguns, but it's a patchwork set of rules. We need to let them know that we want to be able to carry sidearms any time we are in the woods. Most of my time on gamelands is non hunting. I'm really not interested in being told, "Just carry anyway." I try hard to abide by the law. I don't like this one and would like to try to change it.
You can post a proposed regulation change at the bottom of this page. You can also vote on the current proposals here. Scroll all the way down, it's the last section. You are limited to 250 words, so be concise.

Here is my post.
I would like to see the firearms restriction lifted for handguns during the non hunting season. Currently we are limited to carrying a .22 caliber pistol outside of seasons. I would like to be able to legally carry a defensive pistol for protection
I'm going to post this on several boards. Feel free to pass it on as well. We only have till Jan 22 to post comments. As few as 10 comments on one issue will get the commissions attention. Lets do it.
