I am pretty sure in my state(VA) it is Illegal to carry a gun in a bar(any place that serves alcohol). Anyone know anything about this?

In GA, working as an armed security guard requires you to be registered with the state, on a much higher level than your average CCW (Concealed Carry Weapons) permit. I am required to register my firearm with the state, qualify with it, pass 62 hours of firearm safety courses per year, I must shoot with an accuracy higher than 85%, I had to pass a written exam, as well as a yearly phych exam and physical. I am subjected to a full FBI/CIA background check, as well as another background check run by the GBI (Georgia Bureau of Investigations) I also had to pay for these exams. Once completed, this puts you on the same level as an off duty police officer, weapon wise, without arrest powers. This information is on the Secretary of State webpage, which controls private investigators and security personnel in the state of GA.
