I'm moving to Atlanta so I want to know if I need a permit to carry a gun in my car? I'm assuming I know I won't need one to have a gun in my home.

Carrying Weapons

Short Version
Basically, to carry a long gun you do not have to have a license to carry as long as you are not prohibited from owning a firearm. To carry a handgun openly or concealed in the state of Georgia (other than on your property or inside your home, car, or your place of business), you must have a Georgia Weapons Carry License (or the older Georgia Firearm License) issued under code 16-11-129. To carry a knife designed for offense and defense with a blade over 5 inches you must have a Georgia Weapons Carry License (or the older Georgia Firearm License) issued under code 16-11-129. There are exceptions, read below to find out what those are.

First of all it's impossible to "assume" and to "know" at the same time. :ufdup:
Second, you don't assume anything when it comes to gun law.
Get your information directly from government websites unless you're trying to get caught up by some cop looking to be chief of police and your best response to him is going to be " bu bu bu but so and so on the coli told me I can conceal a gun as long as I do such and such". :ufdup:

Honestly call the fukkin police department or a lawyer after you find what you can online.
