In North Carolina, there is no requirement for registering handguns or long guns and there has been no change in the state regarding registration of firearms since the COVID-19 pandemic hit.
However, it is a good idea to keep records on your firearms in a safe place, in case they are lost, stolen, or damaged in a fire. The information you should keep about your guns includes the following:
- Make;
- Model; and
- Serial number.
That way, if your guns turn up missing, you can give detailed information about them to the police and/or your insurance company. Also, if someone steals your gun and pawns it, there is a good chance of its recovery and return to you.
If you have any questions regarding firearm law in North Carolina, please call U.S. LawShield and ask to speak to your Independent Program Attorney.
