with in reach of an occupant (this can mean a passenger) means if that person can readily reach the firearm with out having to move in a reasonable manner to get the gun.
concealed means to be hidden
case under the seat...with in easy reach and hidden
in front seat...with in easy reach but not hidden...coat over it ...concealed
locked in a glove box with an non-accessible key, out of reach and concealed
back seat..out of drivers (and passengers) out of reach... hidden by coat... concealed
and yes NC does not recognize between loaded and unloaded
were they convicted of the charges? if so, bad lawyer. i have seen lots of cases on this and they don't even consider charging anyone anymore
i thought about this. i guess since i only drive p-ups that is the only way i carry :lol:

The last time I read that page it said otherwise. And I have personally known two people to be arrested and charged for having a concealed firearm. They were in the locked glovebox that was locked with the same key that was in the ignition. Inaccessible since they'd have to turn the car off and remove the key to open the glovebox, right? They thought so too. I'm not sure when this was updated, but if that's what it says, then I was wrong and will gladly retract my statement.
I appologize.

I am curious how you keep it on your hip in the car? I tried yesterday and it was really awkward with the seat belt. I could maybe see doing it with bench seat in my old F-150. Plus it would be a really awkward draw if I needed to.
