Concealed carry legal in Georgia without permit?

[GeauxLSU]

Reading over the bill I don't think you have to be 21+ anymore because 18+ are legal to possess handguns due to 16-11-101.1

"Lawful weapons carrier' means any person who is not prohibited by law from possessing a weapon or long gun"

"Weapon' means a knife or handgun"

"Any lawful weapons carrier shall be authorized to carry a weapon as provided in Code 207 Section 16-11-135 and in every location in this state not listed in subsection (b) or 208 prohibited by subsection (e) of this Code section; provided, however, that private property 209"

Go for it.

Don't remember where I heard it, but I was told that the new law would legalize open carry only, and that one still needs a permit to carry concealed?

That is wrong.

*eliminates permitless carry “in state”. If one wants to carry in other states one still needs a permit.

It is a Georgia state law. So yes. What other states require will still depend on their laws.

The only thing that is changing is the fact that where you used to be able to carry with a carry license you now can carry without. Nothing else changes. Core of Engineers land to my knowledge is federal property and that would fall under the same category as the post office. Still off limits.
