Have read some of your statutes, but can't find where penalties are called for.

1. what is penalty for carrying past a sign? Or does it just fall back on "trespassing"?

2. what is penalty for carrying in a place that serves liquor?

14‑269.3. Carrying weapons into assemblies and establishments where alcoholic beverages are sold and consumed.
(a) It shall be unlawful for any person to carry any gun, rifle, or pistol into any assembly where a fee has been charged for admission thereto, or into any establishment in which alcoholic beverages are sold and consumed. Any person violating the provisions of this section shall be guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor.

Not sure how the sign issue would get handled for OC. LEO's would probably tell you to leave. If you don't, the problems would start. Here is how it's handled for CC.


14‑415.21. Violations of this Article punishable as an infraction and a Class 2 misdemeanor.
(a) A person who has been issued a valid permit who is found to be carrying a concealed handgun without the permit in the person's possession or who fails to disclose to any law enforcement officer that the person holds a valid permit and is carrying a concealed handgun, as required by G.S. 14‑415.11, shall be guilty of an infraction for the first offense and shall be punished in accordance with G.S. 14‑3.1. In lieu of paying a fine for the first offense, the person may surrender the permit. Subsequent offenses for failing to carry a valid permit or for failing to make the necessary disclosures to a law enforcement officer as required by G.S. 14‑415.11 shall be punished in accordance with subsection (b) of this section.
(b) A person who violates the provisions of this Article other than as set forth in subsection (a) of this section is guilty of a Class 2 misdemeanor. (1995, c. 398, s. 1.)
