    All questions about CCW can be answered here - www.packing.org

    The one thing about range guns is they're often treated like shit so they don't represent what a gun's like if it's taken care of. I rented a Walther P22 a while back and I hated it because it jammed almost every other round - the cartridges would jam would the nose would hit the feed ramp and stop rather than slide into the chamber. I tried another one later that was owned by someone who took care of it and I loved it.

    wow, how things change........got my concealed license in 2002 from Clayton Co. in less than 2 weeks and only cost me $12.......and this license has saved me from additional charges during an accused street racing trip to Henrico........the supporting officer was ecstatic to find my handgun until his partner told him it was both registered and I had a concealed permit. his jaw dropped in disgust......

    I highly encourage anyone that owns a handgun and has no felonies to seriously get one A.S.A.P.

    Uh hmmm..........Ahmonrah.............what's your status???

    I believe you must have a permit to keep in your car.
    Silencer ehh? Planning to use it in an urban environment.

    I would also look at the Sig P226. Very nice pistol

    WRONG!

    Damnit, everyone needs to STOP giving wrong information as it can have VERY serious consequences. If you *think* that something is so, MAKE SURE. I keep having to stop and correct half of you who give incorrect info!

    (d) This Code section shall not forbid the transportation of any firearm by a person who is not among those enumerated as ineligible for a license under Code Section 16-11-129, provided the firearm is enclosed in a case, unloaded, and separated from its ammunition. This Code section shall not forbid any person who is not among those enumerated as ineligible for a license under Code Section 16-11-129 from transporting a loaded firearm in any private passenger motor vehicle in an open manner and fully exposed to view or in the glove compartment, console, or similar compartment of the vehicle; provided, however, that any person in possession of a valid permit issued pursuant to Code Section 16-11-129 may carry a handgun in any location in a motor vehicle.

    Yes. Listed here 16-11-127 Section B
    http://www.legis.ga.gov/legis/GaCode...11&section=127

    Silencers and even fully automic machine guns are legal with all the right paper work and enough money/time.

    This is the wrong place to ask for any kind of of information regarding firearms. There are about 5 people on here that I have ever seen speak intelligently about them.

    RIGHT! You have to be sure when talking about a gun... Cops can't take any chances. I drive a big truck and most people cannot see in my window. I asked a cop and he said that it was concealed if the officer could not see it when approaching the vehicle. That I should tell the officer, but be prepared for them to be "on guard".
    It either has to be in plain sight, or locked up. Can be loaded.

    It's also called a GFL (Georgia Firearms License) and its good for about 5 years. You don't register guns in the state of GA and the law is actually pretty vague.

    Places off limit include PUBLIC GATHERINGS not limited too:
    churches or church functions
    political rallies or functions
    athletic or sporting events
    publicly owned or operated buildings (pretty sure Highway rest areas fall under here. MARTA, bus stops)
    establishments at which alcoholic beverages are sold for consumption on the premises

    Keep in mind to that everyone meeting up in a parking lot to chill might be considered a Public Gathering. The Public Gathering is a big debate among LEOs and its a hit or miss. I think one guy with a GFL was arrested in McDonald's.

    My friend Lindsey knows gun laws up and down, and she has a concealed permit.. I can put you in touch with her if you like and she can definitely point you in the right direction, instead of all the "I think" and "I believe" because, as mentioned before, a cop isn't gonna care if "My friends on the forum said this was ok!".

    Personally, I'm a revolver fan. Always have been.. I just like the feel... If it was a self protection issue, I wouldn't use a revolver (only 6 shots), but as far as just shooting for fun goes, my personal fave is the Colt .357 Python.. preferably the magnum if I can get my paws on it. It's a heavy ass gun, but the kick is not too bad, and for me it's just.. comfortable..


    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

    There is an Eastman Gun Show this weekend at the North Atlanta Trade Center(formerly the Elco Building) on Oakbrook Parkway in Norcross. check out www.eastmangunshows.com, for more information. I'll check that out...maybe get some good deals on a used gun.

    that'll be a great thing to do. itll be even better if this can be done on open land, wehre all weapons are permitted. i dont know of many that will allow ak/sks rifles, due to the caliber of the weapon. but i'd like to do like snail did, go to some farm and shoot varmints....

    There are ranges locally that have a rifle side which allows for long guns to be fired. Bullseye in Lawrenceville does. That's where I used to sight in my scope before hunting season. If it can stop my 30-06, it can handle the 7.62 for sure.

    i have no idea about the glove box thing, but i think the main reason to get a ccw is to carry it on your person

    If you can legally own a handgun you can get a CCW. Just get the damn permit and you don't have to worry about whether you can carry it loaded in your car or not without one.

    If there was an IA range day I would want to be at the range with like 5 of the guys on this board, I wouldn't trust the rest of you just based on the comments that have been made. Also just because you can talk about guns does not mean you should own one. lol

    You guys do know that an officer cant search your trunk or your locked glovebox only if you give them permission. I was talking to my friend who used to be with LAPD for 16 years and told me all officers need a warrant to search locked glovebox or your trunk. Only reason why you arm lengths in the car they can search but not your glovebox if it has a lock. Funny I never knew that.

    but with that, you can be arrested for obstruction of justice, thereby giving permission to search your vehicle by probable cause.
