Hello All,
I am 100% new to OC. I formerly had a CHP in Alabama before moving to NC but have not yet obtained the CHP for NC. I am very curious about OC and have a few questions. I can definitely see the advantages to OC. Thanks in advance for your help.
I'm sure this is open for interpretation, but where is the line between OC & CC? Is there a certain rule or definition that you go by? For example, can you use an IWB holster as long as the gun is visible or partially visible, or do you have to have it 100% visible?
In reference to the law that says you cannot carry in a place where alcohol is sold or consumed, does that only apply to places that allow patrons to consume the alcohol on the premises? I see in the "OC Experiences" thread that many of you carry in gas stations, grocery stores, etc.. that sell alcohol, but consumption is permitted.
If I OC in my vehicle, then pull up to a place/business that does not allow OC, how do you store your firearm in your vehicle? Does it have to remain displayed in your vehicle or are you allowed to put it in the glove compartment, etc...?
Thanks for helping a OC newbie out.
