    Default How many Billy Badasses we got here?

    No really.. who has a permit to carry a concealed weapon? With House Bill 89 passing I'm just curious.

    No mischief going on here either, I got mine last year after some informal training. (poll coming)

    1) costs vary depending on the county you're in, although it's $26 for the GBI background check regardless. (fyi: in cobb, it's another $20 something you pay to the court house)

    2) go down to your county probate court, fill out paperwork, get fingerprinted...and wait

    3) go to the Wallstreet section, you'll find plenty about the bill there

    No, I don't care - I don't like guns at all.

    I'm one of two people who voted for that.

    The day I turned 21, the first thing I did was go down to the court house and file the paper work and get printed. Then I went and bought my Glock 23. Now I wait.(10 wks till your permit is mailed)

    My permit should be on its way sometime in the mail. You pay the money and wait...and wait...and wait. Oh well, it'll be here sooner or later.

    i voted for the last option, but more so for the "no permit, no care" part. I dont own a gun and can care less about the bill passing. Though i'm sure Charlton Heston is beating off in his grave right now

    Don't really care one way or the other. To me the fight for gun control is like the fight for marijuana. People just want to have things their way, whether it's better for society or not. I would probably say MOST people carry just to say they carry and feel like a bad ass.

    And you are wrong. When I get my carry liscense, I will carry and feel SAFE.

    LOL and since when was it wrong to vote for your self-interests? Everybody has been doing it forever, and everybody will do it forever.

    Cost depends what county.. 26 for the fingerprints and whatever the county charges.

    The bill Is to allow permit holders to carry in "even" more public places.. As to where before it was not permited for example : inside a bar that sells alcohol... Now you will be able to aslong as you dont drink.

    Guns will still not be allowed in bars. They will be allowed in restaurants that serve alcohol (if I remember correctly). These establishments have to make at least 50% of their money from food sales.

    EDIT: this only applies to permit holders.

    You are correct sir. Some of these folks need to read before talking...

    When was the last time you saw someone drunk @ lets say Longhorns?

    You can only carry your gun in restaurants.. not bars...

    Is obvious, you dont have a permit and dont care like you said before.. so why are you posting in this thread ?

    I understand this is the WL and ****.. but dude.... stay out if you dont care.. you voted , move on.

    Whats really the proper term? I went and looked at mine and it says Georgia Firearm License. Since I don't carry I never really paid it much attention, the permit is moreso for road trips or anything out of the ordinary.

    I do like the part where it can be carried in state parks now.

    GFL... But, believe me, alot of people say "conceal" permit even though, in GA you can conceal or no..

    I like the state park also....

    Pubs and bars are okay since most people are ****ed or trashed anyway, but can guns be carried in high security places, such as the airport?
