Hello everyone, I am new here, kinda. I have been visiting this site off and on for several months and have enjoyed reading all the articles and stories. I decided it was time for me to join as I have a couple questions. First a little about me, I am 20 years old, a Business major at Guildford Tech(which I am finding out is not so safe a school), and I am a Eagle Scout.
I have been doing a lot of reading and researching on here about whether I can open carry(under 21), get a ppp and want to try and bring everything together here in one place since most of the information is spread out several topics so as to make the information easier to find for me and anyone els in the 18-20 age group. One thing I have found out is that for someone like me who is under 21, the information can get confusing real fast depending on who you talk to, what website you are on, and then there is just trying to read the actual laws themselves. From what I have read on here is that anyone 18 and over can legally open carry a handgun as well as get a ppp in the state of NC, only difference is that the 18-20 group can only purchase a handgun in a private purchase or be gifted a handgun and not able to purchase from a FFL dealer. I want to make sure that all that is correct? I have had a hard time finding the exact laws that show all that so if someone could post a link for me I would appreciate it.
Before I open carry for the first time I want to make sure I have all my facts strait so I don't do anything wrong and have cops giving me a hard time, and if they do I have the proper information to let them know that is legal for someone under 21 to open carry so I don't get my gun taken and get either a ticket or put in jail. I think thats it for now. Thanks,
