I am moving to Georgia from New York. I currently own a few hand guns and i was wondering if when i fly down would it would be legal for me to take them with me and  hold on to my guns in my household until i get my permit in Georgia.

You are going to love the gun laws here compared to New York. You can own all the guns you want down here and you dont even need a permit. You will only need a permit if you intend on carrying a handgun on your body while away from your home, businessm or vehicle. Check out www.georgiacarry.org for more info.

Should he ship the guns to a Georgia address instead of dealing with the TSA & ATL?

Do us all a favor. Don't vote for at least 3 years except on a national level.

Thanks.

He will need to ship them to an FFL here in Georgia if he does that.  I would recommend driving them down instead of dealing with any airport or shipping hassles.  If you must ship them contact a dealer in the area where you will be living (or ask around for one of the great dealers who are forum members) and go from there. Also, beware any states you pass through as far as their gun laws and enforcement policies if you drive them down.

I missed that part of the law.

I'd still get good insurance on the package just in case someone had sticky fingers, and of course never tell the clerk what was in it.

Huh?
This ain't new York. We don't need a permit to "hold on to my guns"!!!!

You only need a Georgia weapons license to carry your guns. Leave then in the car or your house. Who cares , that is your private property and you can have your guns any way you like

First, welcome to the HTF.

Second, an honest question. Are you planning on becoming a full convert? Because life would just be so much damn easier and grander for us all in the future if so. Promise.

Third, I recommend you not worry about the firearms you have and focus on the several others you should be buying in the nearest future your finances will allow. It's gonna feel like you just climbed the wall and smelled freedom for the first time.

Welcome to GA! Please erase all your old politics and leave them up in NY. Immediately start drinking sweet tea (or tea as it's called), youz guyz is now pronounced "ya'll", gold chains and wife beaters on  males are uncommon and frowned upon, never EVER drive on Bankhead Road at night unless you are in an AMRAP. Regardless of your age you say sir and ma'am down here. Again, welcome to the promise land.

Welcome back. Where are you planning on living?  Conyers is probably not the same place you remember.
