Is it now legal to carry guns at Atlanta International Airport?

I've heard it's now legal to carry guns at the airport all the way up to the security check point.

helI no!

haha good one

everything imaginable is completely legal. untill the point you get cought.

no, you have tell the airline that you have them first, then they must check in with your bags (obviously not a carry on). i was just there a week ago. so i guess you could carry them in a bag in theory all the way up to the security, but you could nor take them out nor bring them past (obviously) and you would have to take them back up to the bag check in. if you ever took it out the security would jump on you, they're everywhere.

That is correct. A law was passed in the last few weeks that allows carrying of a concealed weapon in lots of previously off limit areas in Georgia. The city wanted to make it against the law to carry in the airport, but city law cannot trump the state law.

Basically, it must be checked and it must be approved by the check-in personnel and TSA. Just announce at checkin, and follow the guidlines in the link I have provided here.

Safe travels!

No. There is a new state law that expands what public areas people can carry guns (now including public transportation, in parks and recreation areas and in restaurants that serve alcohol).

However, on July 1 (the same day the law went into effect), city officials declared the airport a "gun-free zone." Gun advocates filed a lawsuit to fight that. The Governor of the state said he'd like his wife to be able to have a gun when she travels.

A hearing is scheduled for August 11. Until then it is illegal to have a gun at the airport.

Everyone seems to be forgetting that neither the city nor the state make the security laws concerning ANY airport. That ALL come under Federal law in the US. Homeland Security.

So no. Carrying is NOT allowed at ANY airport. Transporting a weapon in a case, unloaded, and ammo in a separate container prior to checking it through, IS allowed.

No!
However, Technically, You can have them in your luggagge as long as you " Declare it" I wouldnt do it.
