There are companies advertising “concealed carry permits for all states” online—no range time, just a short video, etc. Joy (Deputy Attorney General)said NC Consumer Protection has tried before to stop their marketing, but the companies point to tiny fine print that says (after you pick NC) “**not valid in NC**.” It’s buried and almost impossible to notice before paying. There will always be range and classroom in NC. Please don’t waste your money!
