Open Carry in NC

[eric.cartman]

I might be going for vacation to NC in the Outer Banks / Nags Head area. My parents regularly rent a house there, and wife and I want to join them this year.

So, I'm a FL resident with FL CWP.

Can I OC in NC?
What are the off limit places for CCW and OC ?

Thanks!

financial institutions are not OC prohibited, only CC prohibited... all of the other places you listed are correct though

Thank you,mekender for that correction.
Vacationing 2 times a year in Blowing Rock and Murphy,NC is a tough row to hoe.

Remember that MOST of the NC Outer Banks is a National wildlife refuge, and in being so, it is unlawful to possess a weapon is those areas.
