Hijack (somewhat) in progress.

How about if I have a friend coming into town. From RI. Is LE. Can I loan him a pistol for a few days. I've researched and cannot fond anything on loaning a pistol. Says it is ok to loan to out of state for hunting. Anyone ever had experience with this. My initial impression based on reading the law is that it cannot be done legally.

Anyone. Anyone. Bueller.

From NCDOJ website-

Under North Carolina law, it is unlawful for any person, firm, or corporation to sell, give away, transfer, purchase, or receive, at any place in the State, any pistol, unless the purchaser or receiver has first obtained a license or permit to receive such a pistol by the sheriff of the county where the purchaser or receiver resides, or the purchaser or receiver possesses a valid North Carolina issued concealed carry permit. This requirement to obtain a permit prior to the transfer of a pistol applies not only to a commercial transaction, typically at a sporting goods store, but also between private individuals or companies throughout North Carolina. N.C. Gen. Stat. § 14- 402(a).

*emphasis mine

Here's a link to the statute.

Under a liberal interpretation of that law, it could be claimed as illegal to take a non-NC resident shooting since he "receives" the pistol from you in order to shoot it. Of course liberals also have strange interpretations for lots of other laws when it suits them.

He didn't. But, he mentioned CCW (which we all know as CHP) and/or permit (PPP)...both of which are for handguns only.
Not necessarily only for handguns when used for purchase. With either you can avoid NICS check buy using either to purchase a handgun or a long gun.
