North Carolina lawmakers pass bill to let gun owners carry weapons in bars

Lawmakers in North Carolina passed on Tuesday expanded rights for concealed carry permit holders, making it legal for gun owners to bring their weapons into bars and restaurants and other public areas previously prohibited.
Republican Gov. Pat McCrory is expected to sign it into law within the next few days, The Associated Press reported.

New law says you can go into the bar and eat, but not drink.  Which is very nice when I go to a bar at lunch and have to take off my gun to eat.   Now I can just go into the bar and not worry about taking my gun off when I am going in for a quick bite.
The other positive part of the bill is they now allow the use of suppressors while hunting.

I'm really looking forward to this in Ohio.  Squirrel hunting will so much nicer!
