Well, that's surprising.

The North Carolina Senate has amended House Bill 937 a lot of good ways. Per Sean:

• Pistol purchase permits would be eliminated.
• Park carried rules clarified, in our favor
• Guns in locked vehicles on ALL school properties. Now you can drop your little one off at school while carrying and not be a felon!
• CHP records no longer public records. No more newspapers snooping on you
• An end to the ban on firearms at parades and funerals, if you have a CHP
• CHP holders can carry in “Assemblies that charge admission,” such as theaters.
• Silencers legal for hunting.

The elimination of pistol purchase permits is one I've wanted to see gone a long time. Pistol permits in North Carolina are "may issue". Sheriffs have a enormous amount of latitude in to whom they issue them. All of the new amendments are guaranteed to ruin a prohibitionist's day, night, week, or month. That is always a good thing.
