What action should a Concealed Handgun Permit holder take if their permit is lost or stolen in North Carolina?

Apply for a new permit as if it's their first time
Immediately notify local law enforcement
Nothing, as there is no requirement to report it
Only notify the issuing sheriff's office if it happens more than once

The correct answer is: Immediately notify local law enforcement

There are multiple reasons why the other options are incorrect A: Applying for a new permit as if it's their first time would not be necessary or appropriate since the old permit is still valid and can potentially be used fraudulently. C: Choosing to do nothing and not report the lost or stolen permit may be a convenient option, but it goes against the Concealed Carry laws that require permit holders to immediately inform law enforcement of any lost or stolen permits. D: While this may seem like a logical option, it is not backed by North Carolina's Concealed Carry laws. In fact, it is a criminal offense to not report a lost or stolen permit to local law enforcement as soon as possible. Therefore, the best and only recommended option for a Concealed Handgun Permit holder in North Carolina is to immediately notify local law enforcement of the lost or stolen permit. This will ensure the safety and security of the permit holder and prevent anyone from fraudulently using their permit.
