“The 2nd ammedment to the Federal constitution has no ligitimate baring on the State of North Carolina.”
Yes, it does. The McDonald decision vs. Chicago fully incorporated the 2nd Amendment as pertaining to state laws.

I’m sorry ‘green iguana’ you must have overlooked the word LEGITIMATE in reading my remark.
The edicts of Federal employees in black-robes is incapable of legitimately altering the Federal Constitution.
The fact that they not only ignore the text of the document(which says nothing of application to States), but also 222+ years of practice, understanding, and numerous prior federal court edicts in issuing their new incorporation doctrine does not grant them a new power to rewrite the extent of their own power.
...meaning that no state law can place restrictions on the rights specified in the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution without demonstrating a compelling interest in doing so.
Thanks to Heller, the 2nd Amendment can now be treated like the 1st is as a matter of course.
