This thread will be updated on a regular basis when new bills come in for Georgia.

Note: We will only post legislation we feel is negative or positive, those new bills which don't actually effect your rights will not be included but you can always find them on the state legislation page.

Starting off (prefiled):

HB10 is a full blown 'assault weapon' ban along with a large capacity magazine ban and a ban on armor piercing bullets.

HB11 would require anyone wishing to get or renew a carry permit to show proof of firearm training.
