Concealed Carry

[neophyte]

Do we have any carrying concealed firearms in the Charlotte area

[spittinfire]

Do you carry?

[Sarahdactyl]

I know that Deepskyy does! I am working on getting mine

[Deepskyy]

No, I don't have my CCW yet. I open carry when I am going out late into a less than favorable part of the city.

[neophyte]

yes; I carry with a ''CC card" up for re-newal;
will renew

What is involved in obtaining a permit for concealed carry? I currently live in a state that does not require a permit.

Thank you

Arkansas has pretty much the same requirements/qualifications as NC. We don't have an additional fee for the Sheriff (although he probably gets part of the total fee). The class is very interesting, the range qualifying is fun. An interesting note, I was stopped once by a Deputy for having a license plate light out (yep, they stopped me for that!), and the deputy chastised me pretty good for not informing him that I had a concealed weapon in the car when he first approached me. When he ran the license it showed that I had a CC permit. Just an interesting note for anyone in Arkansas who might get stopped who has a CC permit.

I have my CCH and if I leave the house, so does my sidearm.
