What type of background check is conducted for North Carolina Concealed Handgun Permit applicants?

  1. Criminal only

  2. Criminal and mental health

  3. Credit and criminal

  4. Employment history and criminal

The correct answer is: Criminal and mental health

A North Carolina Concealed Handgun Permit applicant must undergo a criminal background check as well as a mental health background check to ensure that the individual is not a danger to themselves or others. Options A, C, and D are all incorrect as they only focus on one aspect of the background check process and do not fully account for the safety and well-being of the community. Additionally, the inclusion of a mental health background check allows for a more thorough evaluation of an individual's fitness to possess a concealed handgun.
