That's good for Wake Co residents. I got my info from a co-worker. I trust the sheriff himself is a better source.Just got off the phone with Donnie Harrison, the new Sheriff. He said this is untrue, that you are limited to 5 pistol purchase permits per application, and unlimited applications per year.
I am certain about Durham Co., as I just got 2 permits a month ago.
I'm not sure this is true for folks who move to Durham County. The State Attorney General's web site says there's no registration in the state at all, but it misses this odd-ball Durham only law. I know personally the Clerk of the Court will happily fill in the registration forms for you.Again, as to previously owned firearms, that comply with
state and federal laws, no registration is required. Thank you for your inquiry.
Check http://www.webnexus.com/users/ncrkba/laws.html for NC laws summaries. I just read the Durham law, G.S. Chapter 157, HB566 and it only mentions new transfers, not new residents. This may mean that you don't have to register when you move in. I don't know for sure, I am not a lawyer, and all that.
