North Carolina legislators approve bill for permitless concealed carry, facing potential veto.

North Carolina's legislature has approved a bill allowing adults to carry concealed handguns without a permit, potentially making it the 30th state with such a law. The bill, which sets the age limit at 18, faces a likely veto from Democratic Governor Josh Stein, with some Republicans also opposing the measure. If passed, it would join 29 other states with similar laws, though critics argue it could lead to increased gun violence and less safe communities.
