Gear is a complete non-issue for LAV's classes. Larry cares little about gear and all about shooting. Just make sure what you do bring is serviceable. At a minimum try to have 1 (at least) carbine mag(s)and 1-2 handgun mags on your body and you will do fine.

I'm sure we will have everything from simple 3-mag chest rigs, belt set-ups with 1-2 carbine & 1-2 handgun magazines on the belt, to full on plate carrier/chest rigs w/ armor rigs used by different individuals. In the end it does not really matter though. Guys have shot this class with spare carbine mags in their back pocket and done fine.

Are there slots open for this class?

[bulbvivid]

Can somebody school me on NC firearm transportation laws? I've been searching the errornet and much of what I can find is ambiguous at best, even concerning open carry in a vehicle.

I'm driving a truck to the class and would rather not have my rifle in the bed, so I'm thinking of keeping it in a case in the cab, with the ammo in the bed. But, if I have it in a case behind the seat, does that constitute a concealed weapon? How else can I do it? Again, I would rather not have it in the bed of the truck, for obvious reasons, though I do have a cap over the bed.

I have a Tennessee HCP and we have reciprocity with NC, so I'm not as concerned about the pistol, but if anyone could let me know of any "gotchas" to look out for, I would appreciate it. From what I can gather, no carry in places that sell alcohol, including convenience stores. Is that correct?

You'll be fine with the rifle cased and behind the seat

Thanks for the info. I figured I was probably over-thinking it, but with this stuff, you can't be too careful.

[Watrdawg]

I travel with my weapons like that all the time. I have my CCW also and am usually wearing my weapon. If I am not wearing my weapon it is usually in my center consle.

[chris914]

I am really looking forward to this class and meeting some new folks.

Class starts at 8am right?

[Amp Mangum]

8:30am

[Watrdawg]

8:30 positive? Just want to be sure. I only have a 40 minute drive from the house but don't want to be late. I never got an actual start time in an email or on the add for the class.
