gun laws??

[lennyluminum]

does anyone know the laws for transporting your  gun from state to state? I am going from Florida to Alabama to see my uncle and wanted to bring my sks i just got to shoot on his land but my buddy said i might not be able to take it threw Georgia.?

Is there any laws on this or what??

If it was me I would contact the state police of the state in question

Flying, Driving, Skateboard?  If your driving just lock it in a gun case, put the mags and ammo in a seperate locked container. After all this is stil the USA right! You can visit Smokey The Bear these days with a handgun.

Just keep the guns and ammo seperate and locked. If pulled over for any reason always say that you have guns and ammo so the LEO will respect you.

As long as you are driving you should be able to put it in a gun case (unloaded) and you will be fine. Unless for some reason that state has a ban on SKS. I wouldn't think so.

But after you get there is another story? LOL Thats a nice gun you got there. Good luck with the transport.

My bro-in-law and I drove from Jacksonville, Fl to Phoenix, Az in 34 or so hours, nobody wanted to see our guns.. Drive fast through Georgia.

If your really paranoid just ship it there FedEx or UPS beforehand. Just declaire thats its a weapon.

I don't actually know the gun laws in Ga but I sure see lots of gun racks in pickup truck windows with guns in them while there

Actually I would put it unloaded in a gun case in the trunk and I think you'd be fine. I have a concealed weapons permit which is honored in Ga but I also always have a rifle hanging off the back of the seat in my truck in a soft case that hooks to the head rests. That being said I have never been pulled over in Ga

ditto! a simple bayonet mount, pistol grip or flash suppresor can make the difference from state to state.

While you could probably get away with driving through Georgia with a 50 cal mounted to the roof of your F-150, I would check the local laws just to be sure (as suggested above).

I sent you a PM you with Georgia Title 16, Chapter 11, Section 126 that should clear it up. Georgia is about as easy as Florida to transport firearms
