Too obvious on that one. Good for you doing the right thing and telling him no.

per GA Carry:
Q: Can I carry a handgun openly, without concealing it?
A: No! Georgia is one of the minority of states that requires a Georgia Weapons License to carry a handgun openly outside of your home, car, or place of business. However, any person with a valid hunting or fishing license on his or her person, or any person not required by law to have a hunting or fishing license, who is engaged in legal hunting, fishing, or sport shooting when the person has the permission of the owner of the land on which the activities are being conducted may have or carry on his or her person a handgun or long gun without a valid weapons carry license while hunting, fishing, or engaging in sport shooting.

thank you sir this tool just told me you can as you can see in my post above.. lol
What an ass. He needs to learn the laws and not get someone arrested with misinformation. Person to person sales are legal if both parties are GA residents and can legally own firearms in the state. A guy with a NH DL is not a Ga resident.
Exact wording from the ATF website:
A person may sell a firearm to an unlicensed resident of his State, if he does not know or have reasonable cause to believe the person is prohibited from receiving or possessing firearms under Federal law.
[18 U.S.C. 922(a)(3) and (5), 922(d), 27 CFR 478.29 and 478.30]
I've gotten a few offers like the OPs in the last few months. They were carefully worded so that there was no doubt that the prospective buyer was a resident of another state but always had an excuse regarding why they were in Georgia. Of course, I quickly turned the offers down and an option of going through a FFL was put on the table. None of them ever took that offer.
It does seem unusual that these individuals would not know the law yet provide the exact bits of information needed to prove that the law was being broken.
