How must a concealed handgun be carried in a vehicle according to North Carolina law?

  1. In an unlocked glove compartment

  2. On the person

  3. In a locked container

  4. Anywhere in the vehicle as long as it is visible

The correct answer is: On the person

A concealed handgun must be carried on the person according to North Carolina law. This means that it must be carried on one's body, such as in a holster or in a concealed carry purse. Options A and C are incorrect because they involve storing the handgun in an unlocked or locked container, which does not satisfy the requirement of carrying it on the person. Option D is incorrect because it suggests that the handgun can be carried openly in the vehicle, which goes against the purpose of concealed carry laws. Therefore, the only correct option is B.
