Good. Carrying a paperweight to a gun fight is not a good idea.I don't plan to carry any it was only a question
assuming everyone is packing a weapon doesn't make you an ass. It makes you a better prepared defender
thought everyone on odt carried a gun and was the baddest ass in the world
From what I can find -- and I'm not a lawyer so don't take this to mean all circumstances or situations:
- Illegal to carry in government buildings: https://codes.findlaw.com/ga/title-16-crimes-and-offenses/ga-code-sect-16-11-34-1.html
- Illegal to carry concealed in schools or on buses: https://codes.findlaw.com/ga/title-16-crimes-and-offenses/ga-code-sect-16-11-127-1.html
- Illegal to sell to minors <18 years old: https://codes.findlaw.com/ga/title-16-crimes-and-offenses/ga-code-sect-16-11-101.html
I lost all my guns in a boating accident so now I'm after brass knuckles
Looks like current GA law ignores these...
§ 16-11-125.1. Definitions. As used in this part, the term:
...
(5) "Weapon" means a knife or handgun
I found old versions of the laws (2006) where brass knuckles and other bludgeons were called out as illegal, but that seems to have gone away in the 'guns everywhere' law passed a few years back.
There's also a definition for 'Dangerous Weapon", but that's strictly NFA items.

True story
Gov Deal signed HB 292 last year, increasing the length of offensive/defensive knives from greater than 5 inches to greater than 12 inches.
O.C.G.A. 16-11-125.1 (2) now reads:
(2) "Knife" means a cutting instrument designed for the purpose of offense and defense consisting of a blade that is greater than 12 inches in length which is fastened to a handle.
After thought....
They really aint **** until they can rip off the arms of a frog hunter
