As said above an AR pistol travels across state lines so much easier than a SBR so I have both lowers ... my Form 1 SBR Spikes multi lower and my pistol lower which is actually an Aero Precision lower marked “Pistol” from the factory. I do fill out a stack of Form 20’s to be able to transport my SBR to various states but unless I’m traveling for a class or shoot I go with the short upper on my pistol lower ... which now like Defek’s has a Laws Folding Adapter and SB Tactical brace in the works ... in a messenger bag. I see he also is running a 20 round mag which to me is easier for bagging mine ... along with an eextra mag and sometimes a suppressor.
Now I have had a couple unfriendly LEOs (one from Cary and she was a bitch ... one from Wilmington and he was to new to the job) tell me they do not recognize an AR pistol as being covered by our CHPs because of the definition in the NC Statutes of what a handgun is ... being a firearm meant to be fired one handed so while it is a pistol it is not a handgun while all handguns are pistols not all pistols are handguns??? They didn’t want to reply but I asked if they fired their service sidearm one handed or two handed ... but both still came back at me saying an AR pistol isn’t covered under the CHP to which I then told them all my friends that are LEOs or retired LEOs said they see them fall under our CHPs. The Cary LEO said if she saw me she’d arrest me and let the judge settle it.
Nothing says quality quite like diversity hiring.
Ain't it great she gets to enforce her version of the law. Hope she croaks of a heart attack while chasing a bad guy. Where the hell is Darwin when you need him?
