Any person who boards or attempts to board an aircraft, bus, or rail vehicle with any explosive, destructive device, or hoax device as such term is defined in Code Section 16-7-80; firearm;... on the aircraft, bus, or rail vehicle shall be guilty of a felony.
OCGA 16-12-122 defines a terminal: "(10) 'Terminal' means an aircraft, bus, or rail vehicle station, depot, any such transportation facility, or infrastructure relating thereto operated by a transportation company or governmental entity or authority. This term includes a reasonable area immediately adjacent to any designated stop along the route traveled by any coach or rail vehicle operated by a transportation company or governmental entity operating aircraft, bus, or rail vehicle transportation facility and parking lots or parking areas adjacent to a terminal."

Does anyone know how this applies to privately owned aircraft at non-international type airports? Oh and DKing I'm back in town, want to shoot some time?

My understanding is it does not apply to private planes. At least that is what I have always heard.

How else could the A-Team get their ranch rifles to the destination?

Well:

The provisions of this subsection shall not apply to any privately owned aircraft, bus, or rail vehicle if the owner of such aircraft or vehicle has given his or her express permission to board the aircraft or vehicle with the item.

OCGA 16-12-123(b)

UNfortunately, there is no such exception for the terminals, which are controlled by 16-12-127 (the statute you quote is the definition of terminals.

It is an affirmative defense to a violation of this Code section if a person notifies a law enforcement officer or other person employed to provide security for a transportation company of the presence of such item as soon as possible after learning of its presence and surrenders or secures such item as directed by the law enforcement officer or other person employed to provide security for a transportation company.
