I'm visiting Asheboro, NC in the near future and am looking forward to OCing. I've reviewed the NC state law. Is anyone aware of Asheboro local/muni issues or attempts to buck pre-emption?
I found their muni code and found provisions about discharging weapons as well as carrying in parks/buildings.
The Mayor can also prohibit possession of firearms in an emergency and there's city prohibitions on carrying in parades. I don't expect any of these to apply during my visit.
Are there any local experiences or issues to be aware of? Thanks!

(B) Location of signs. Signs on buildings shall be visibly posted on the exterior of each entrance by which the general public can access the building. The City Manager shall exercise discretion in determining the number and appropriate location of signs to be placed on or within appurtenant premises and parks.
