	Here's an interesting situation to think about.....  I am a student
in Atlanta, GA and my permanent residence is in Tennessee.  I would like to
purchase a handgun for home protection concerns, but I am not allowed to
purchase a handgun from a dealer because I am not a PERMANENT resident of 
the state.  An interesting fact here is that according to a local dealer, I
can purchase a handgun with a Tennessee driver's license and a State of 
Georgia Identification card.  However, I can't get a Georgia ID without
turning in my Tennessee drivers license.  Furthermore, it would be illegal 
for me to purchase a handgun from an INDIVIDUAL who is a resident of the 
state of Georgia, so that's another strike against me.  Here's the clincher... 
I am never in Tennessee during a college break for more than one week, and
there is a 15 day waiting period.  Stuck again!  Does this seem strange, or
am I crazy?  If you have had any experience or think that I have been 
misinformed, please mail me a message.  I'm really upset!  Thanks.....
