For a North Carolina resident, where is it illegal to carry a concealed handgun, even with a permit?

  1. In your own home

  2. In an establishment that serves alcohol

  3. In a workplace that permits concealed handguns

  4. At outdoor public gatherings

The correct answer is: In an establishment that serves alcohol

It is illegal for a North Carolina resident to carry a concealed handgun in an establishment that serves alcohol, even with a permit, due to the potential for increased danger and violence. While carrying a concealed handgun is allowed in some places such as one's own home or workplace, the combination of alcohol and firearms can be a dangerous mix. Additionally, carrying a concealed handgun at outdoor public gatherings is also typically illegal due to safety concerns for a large group of people in a public space.
