North Carolina Republicans have scrapped the state's long-lived pistol permit requirement, aided by the absence of several Democrats, which gave Republicans the numbers they needed to overturn Governor Roy Cooper's veto for the first time since Republicans lost their veto-proof super majorities in the 2018 elections. In this episode, WRAL’s state government reporter Travis Fain explains what this means for gun purchasers and owners, and how it is shaped by the political landscape of our state.
