What is considered when determining a person's eligibility for a Concealed Handgun Permit in North Carolina?

  1. Age and residency only

  2. Mental health and criminal background

  3. Income level

  4. Political affiliations

The correct answer is: Mental health and criminal background

When determining a person's eligibility for a Concealed Handgun Permit in North Carolina, we must consider the individual's mental health and criminal background. Other factors such as age, residency, and income level are not taken into account. Age and residency are straightforward requirements and do not directly reflect an individual's ability to handle a firearm responsibly. As for income level, it is not a factor because obtaining a permit is not dependent on the ability to pay. Political affiliations are irrelevant and discriminatory as they have no relevance to a person's ability to carry a concealed handgun. Therefore, the only factors that are relevant to the eligibility for a Concealed Handgun Permit in North Carolina are mental health and criminal background.
