Getting a concealed carry permit (CCW) in North Carolina may seem overwhelming, but with the right guidance, it’s simple and straightforward. Here’s everything you need to know:
Step 1: Complete a North Carolina Certified Concealed Carry Course
To apply for your permit, you must first complete a certified Concealed Carry Handgun (CCH) course. This course will cover firearm safety, handling, state laws related to carrying concealed firearms, and self-defense. The class typically takes 8 hours, including both classroom instruction and range time.
Step 2: Obtain Your Certificate of Completion
After successfully completing the course, you will receive a certificate showing you’ve met the training requirements. This certificate is essential for your application.
Step 3: Submit Your Application to the Sheriff’s Office
Next, head to the Sheriff’s Office in your county of residence (whether it’s Alamance, Durham, or any of the other nearby counties) to submit your concealed carry application. You will need:
- Your certificate of completion
- A government-issued ID
- Proof of residency (military orders and State ID)
- Application fee (varies by county, usually around $90)
- Fingerprints (done at the Sheriff’s Office)
