Default New Gun Owner From NC

Hello, after finally turning 18 (Though I'm actually 19 now) and many months of waiting for the god awful NC government to give me my pistol purchase permit I have finally bought myself a handgun(which is also my first gun). The SD9VE. I have put the apex spring kit in, but decided to keep the stock trigger. My brother and I are going to take it to the range this week, so we'll see how it fares. I also like knives, and watches.

Welcome aboard! Congratulations on your new purchase but I thought you had to be 21 in NC to buy a pistol or get a pistol permit.

21 to buy from a FFL and 18 to buy from a private party/gift. Permits can be had at 18 also.
