North Carolina Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP) Practice Exam

In the state of North Carolina, when a Concealed Handgun Permit is issued, the local police department is notified. This is done to ensure the safety of the community by keeping law enforcement informed of who in their jurisdiction is legally allowed to carry a concealed handgun. Options B and C are incorrect because the NRA and the permit holder's employer are not involved in the process of issuing a permit and do not need to be notified. Option D may seem like a possible choice, but it is incorrect as the permit issuance is not confidential, but rather shared with local law enforcement. Therefore, the only correct option is A.
