There are many more good carry guns, but because of their weight and single action ( cocking the hammer for the first shot or carrying cocked & locked) most people unless you are a big man or women find it hard to carry these on a day-to-day basis. If you are one of these people that like a larger gun stick to name brands like Glock, Colt, Springfield , Kimber and Para you can't  go wrong.        

     In July 1995, the North Carolina General Assembly enacted a Concealed Carry Handgun Law that  allows qualifying citizens of North Carolina the opportunity to obtain a permit to carry a concealed handgun.  Under the law, the individual MUST complete a required training program. The program must be a minimum of 8 hours and include a live firing qualification.
