North Carolina Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP) Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

Under North Carolina law, which of these firearms is NOT permitted to be carried concealed with a CHP?

Handgun

Automatic rifle

In North Carolina, the law governing concealed carry permits specifically allows for the carrying of handguns with a valid concealed handgun permit (CHP). However, automatic rifles and short-barreled shotguns do not fall under the category of firearms that a CHP covers.

The reason automatic rifles are not permitted is that they are classified as more restricted firearms under federal law, and their possession and carry are subject to stricter controls. Short-barreled shotguns are also heavily regulated due to their designation as a type of firearm that can be more easily concealed and used in criminal activities.

Therefore, the correct answer identifies that an automatic rifle is not permitted to be carried concealed under a CHP in North Carolina, while handguns are explicitly allowed for carry with the proper permit, setting the groundwork for why only the automatic rifle is highlighted as an incorrect firearm for concealed carry under North Carolina laws.
