A couple of things to remember are L
To your point 1 - Georgia doesn't have a CCW permit. We have a Georgia Firearms License with which we may carry concealed or open. We must have the license on us to carry either way, but we are not constrained to concealed carry.

and

to your point 3 (INAL but...) - Unless the police have “specific and articulable facts” (Terry vs. Ohio) to "stop and frisk" you, they should have no way to know that your are carrying concealed. Remember the five magic words "am I free to go?".
