Last time I was here NC was listed as an OC-friendly state because it was not illegal according to statute law. Now it's listed as gold star but I don't see any difference on the state page. Can someone please fill me in?
I like to say NC is a gold star* state.
*: we have a lot of confusing and vague laws that have involved us debating what they mean, and how to go about making sure we're all 'in the clear' when carrying
Some of us here wonder the same thing. Why is Alabama an OC Friendly state, but NC a gold star state? You can carry pretty much anywhere in AL, but NC has several restrictions. Some of the maps on the site need to be updated anyways.
for example, Gold Star is defined as "Generally preempted open carry permitted on foot and in vehicles without a license; localities generally preempted."
