No. You can go to a shooting range and shoot a gun without a concealed permit, however, you may be required to have some other type of paperwork.

Can you use a legally owned handgun to prevent a crime in progress if you do not have a license to carry a concealed weapon?
Laws are complicated, which is why we have lawyers. So yes, you can use a legally owned handgun to prevent a crime in progress, even if you do not have a license to carry a concealed weapon. However, if you shoot someone, or kill someone, you may still be accused of having used excessive or unnecessary force. Even if you do not shoot anyone, but you do discharge the gun and damage some property as a result, the owner of that property may sue you. So I won't tell you that this is entirely free of risk.
Do you need a license to hunt private land in Georgia?
Georgia does require a hunting license to hunt public land. In addition a Big Game license is required to hunt deer (or hogs). Also, since most public land is in a WMA (Wildlife Management Area) a WMA license is also required. So deer hunting on public land requires 3 licenses: 1) GA Hunting License 2) Big Game License 3) WMA License. Small Game hunting on public land requires two licenses: 1) GA Hunting License 2) WMA License.On private land the requirement for the WMA license is removed.A "Georgia firearm license" has nothing directly to do with hunting, as it refers to what in many states would be known as a Concealed Handgun License, Concealed Weapons License, or License to Carry a Concealed Pistol. The reason it is not called a concealed handgun license, etc., is that it is not limited to the carrying of concealed firearms. A Georgia Firearms License relieves the holder from the legal restrictions concerning possessing a firearm in public. There is no requirement that the handgun be concealed. Without this license, carrying a handgun is prohibited, unless you are going directly to or from the shooting range, the area where you hunt, the gunsmith, or some other lawful activity where the gun is required. If you do not have a Georgia Firearm License, you should keep your firearms unloaded and locked up while driving, just in case you are pulled over and questioned about it by a police officer. Most Georgia police officers support hunters and know how to tell the difference between a criminal and a law-abiding citizen, but you should still exercise caution.One important aspect of the Georgia Firearm License for hunters is that without one, you cannot legally possess a cartridge-firing handgun while hunting during muzzleloading ("primitive weapon") season. With the license, you can possess the modern handgun, but are limited to using it for self-defense against human attackers. You still cannot use a modern handgun to kill game during the primitive weapon period.
What is the name of the license for guns?
Depends on which license, in which area. There is a Concealed Carry License, sometimes called a CHL or CCW or CWP. There is an OWNER'S license required in a few states, such as the Illinois Firearm Owners ID card (FOID) A dealer or collector may hold a Federal Firearms License (FFL) to engage in those practices.
Do you need a permit to buy a gun in Florida?
Yes, as long as you are also a resident of Florida. Sorry, I should have also said this: You can buy a handgun from a private party if you don't live in Florida, but to be legal, the owner would have to ship the gun to a dealer in your state, and you would have to pick it up there. There will almost always be a charge for that.
