NC Override of Veto.

[1075tech]

In what surprised many, the NC House and Senate voted today to override Gov. Cooper's veto of a law repealing the requirement for a pistol purchase permit (PPP).

Previously, to purchase a pistol from an FFL, one either needed a PPP or CCP.

This repeal does away with the PPP requirement. Beginning today, if you purchase a pistol from an FFL, it's the same as buying a rifle or shotgun. 4473 and NICS.

There is no requirement for private sales.

A permit is still required for concealed carry. Open carry is permitted without a permit.

The other important part of the bill also allows concealed carry (with the requisite permit) on educational property operated by a church when school activities are NOT in session.

Previously, one could not carry to church on Sunday if that church also had a school. That change takes effect 12/1.

It's a step in the right direction.

Anyone in NC do not shop at this gun store because he doesn’t have your rights or your best interest in mind. If he doesn’t want to sell guns then he shouldn’t be doing it. He’s also wrong when he says now anyone can buy a gun and the federal NICS check system will be overwhelmed by this. Am I to believe if you have a pistol permit in NC they didn’t do a background check when you purchased a new handgun? He also says NICS doesn’t do a mental health or domestic violence check??? This guys an idiot and wrong on most things here except I’m not sure on the BC a for all pistol purchases but I can’t see them bypassing it.

Didn't read the article but...

Both the now defunct PPP or a Concealed Carry Permit do not require a NICS. 4473 is retained by the retailer.

Both required a background check and were/are valid for 5 years. You could get multiple PPPs at a time.

CCP requires an 8 hour class and live fire, fingerprints and background check.

PPP was basically just a background check.

I am not surprised by this as Asheville is a lib enclave, with a ton of crime.

He

I am not surprised by this as Asheville is a lib enclave, with a ton of crime.

he claims he doesn’t want the liability and the other government checks reduced his liability. He seems like a tool.
