What is the minimum age for obtaining a Concealed Handgun Permit in North Carolina?

  1. 18 years

  2. 19 years

  3. 21 years

  4. 25 years

The correct answer is: 21 years

In North Carolina, the minimum age for obtaining a Concealed Handgun Permit is 21 years old. This is because the state laws require individuals to be 21 years old in order to purchase a handgun, and the Concealed Handgun Permit allows the holder to carry a concealed handgun. Therefore, options A and B are incorrect as they are below the legal age for purchasing a handgun. Option D, while it meets the legal requirement for purchasing a handgun, is still incorrect as it is above the minimum age for obtaining a Concealed Handgun Permit in North Carolina.
