Cobb County and "airsoft guns"

Lawton,

I won't answer your questions specifically, because you've certainly been around here enough to know how and where to find the answers for yourself.

My non-legal/official answer is your grandson is good to go (as is mine).

 

This is why more and more people don't come back to GPDO

 

that was funny

 

Check Municode.com.
If I recall correctly from what I read other Cobb backyard plinkers have written here, it's legal to shoot in unincorporated Cobb, so long as you have a safe backstop so the projectile stays on your own property.
With Air-Soft, that would probably only require 50 yards of distance and/or some light vegitation to knock down the little plastic pellets.

City of Kennesaw? Check MuniCode or call City Hall. They might have stricter rules than in unincorporated Cobb.

 

From municode for cobb county:

Sec. 86-5. - Weapons discharge.

If this is done, a duplicate of the warning will be sent to the minor's parents or legal guardian by certified mail.

Y'know what jerkwad?

I am one of the few people that have defended you on this forum (you can look it up if you care).

No more.

Bite me.

 

I might be wrong, but isn't this a forum to ask questions and recieve information about gun laws in the great state of Georgia? And shouldn't people who ask legitimate questions recieve legitimate answers, and not attitude? Just a question.
