Gun control legislation is essential to fighting crime, protecting our citizens, and reducing dangers our law enforcement face each day. Congress needs to ban certain high powered assault weapons, close the gun show loophole, require background checks for purchases of firearms, and improve the tracking of firearms in our country.
Prohibition does not apply to a person who has a concealed handgun permit; has a concealed handgun permit considered valid under G.S. 14-415.24, or is exempt from obtaining a permit; provided the weapon is a handgun, is in a closed compartment or container within the person's locked vehicle, and the vehicle is in a parking area that is owned or leased by State government .
