Which of the following places is it illegal to carry a concealed handgun in North Carolina, even with a permit?

  1. Public parks

  2. Areas where alcohol is sold but not consumed

  3. Educational institutions

  4. Private residences with permission from the owner

The correct answer is: Educational institutions

Educational institutions in North Carolina refers to any public or private school, college, or university. It is illegal to carry a concealed handgun even with a permit in these areas due to safety concerns and the potential threat it may pose to students and faculty. While carrying a concealed handgun with a permit is generally allowed in public parks and areas where alcohol is sold but not consumed, it is important to note that specific parks and establishments may have their own regulations regarding firearms. Private residences with permission from the owner is also a valid option for carrying a concealed handgun in North Carolina, however, it is important to obtain explicit permission from the owner before doing so.
