IS A SMALL PISTOL OR KNIFE WHICH IS DESIGNED TO FIT INTO A BELT BUCKLE, BUT IS FULLY FUNCTIONAL, CONSIDERED CONCEALED IN NORTH CAROLINA?
Yes. Gun and knife belt buckles described above falsely give an impression of being ornamental in nature. As their nature and purpose is concealed and misleading, and coupled with the weapons immediate and ready accessibility to the wearer of such a belt buckle, they would be considered concealed.
