Is a concealed carry license from Alaska valid in North Carolina?
According to the Carry Concealed website (see related link
'Carry Concealed'), yes, it is. However, CCW reciprocity is subject
to unannounced changes, and someone traveling from Alaska with a
CCW needs to contact the North Carolina State Police or North
Carolina Department of Justice to verify that the state of North
Carolina continues to maintain reciprocity with Alaska.
This should be done by email, so that the response is
documented, and a copy of this email should be retained at all
times, along with concealed carry permit and photo ID.
Anyone from out of state who will be carrying concealed in the
state of North Carolina should also request information on
concealed carry laws in North Carolina, as they tend to differ
quite a bit from other CCW states, and be made aware that, in North
Carolina, any CCW holder has an obligation to disclose this to any
police officer who approaches them, whether or not they are
carrying a handgun while being approached.
