    A growing threat in South Africa

    Jip, besides the fact that there are no stats to back any statement on the source of illegal weapons. State firearms are never licensed and notoriously badly managed. That is now if you ignore the thousands of firearms that was handed in by lawful owners to government after GFSA lobbied...

    Sad the Broad Media group is complicit in spreading misinformation and fear-mongering.

    Best places to work as an Embedded engineer

    Uhm, depend what you are looking for; at some time you will probably need to decide whether you want to specialize in hardware design or embedded systems design and programming. Good news there are lots of options, over the years whether due to retrenchments, bankruptcy or just the need to move...

    Best places to work as an Embedded engineer

    They stopped using custom designed and locally manufactured decoders back in 2000's Locally designed and manufactured were top notch. Last one was the SD PVR, could watch and record in combination of 4 channels. They lasted so long and has such a good interface that users were using them still...

    How to comfortably carry a self defence weapon all the time

    SO the one difference allowed for S13 and not S15 is storage (did see it mentioned so far). You are allowed to store a section 13 loaded and not a section 15 ( Firearms regulations section 87(11)) AS to your observation, one yes and two the FCA a terrible piece of legislation in terms in the...

    Mind The Speed Support

    I think a kudos to the MTS technical team (wherever they are now) and Cool Ideas (@PBCool), the switchover was seamless. I've actually seen a slight (~10ms) to my EU traffic, which was a big worry and the reason I originally went with MTS over Cool Ideas.

    How much does it cost to get a gun license

    "perhaps have a Gunsmith have it destroyed" Also not an option it is illegal for anybody including a gunsmith to destroy or deactivate it withotu SAPS permission. You pay the gunsmith for deactivation, then get a letter from them then go to the cop shop, fill in another form with the...

    How much does it cost to get a gun license

    Does a ban on booze help?

    At most it could have been justified as a short term method to ease the pressure in hospitals to enable government (if they were halfway competent) to implement emergency measures. Government incompetence, general corruption, lack of law enforcement and functioning judiciary can not be fixed by...

    New gun and self defence rules will reduce crime in South Africa: Cele

    Worked in 2015 and 2018 to stop the same amendments; that is why the skelms at SAPS skipped the stakeholder participation process on drafting this round. They can choose to ignore it but places like DearSA is keeping track of submission throgh their platform and this opens a legal case to get...

    New gun and self defence rules will reduce crime in South Africa: Cele

    Just making another point, with this new bill it is making it hard and extremely expensive for security companies to keep their personnel armed. So if this is allowed to pass your security that shows up will most likely be armed with a pepperspray, rape whistle and cellphone to call SAPS.

    New gun and self defence rules will reduce crime in South Africa: Cele

    The staffy on the left side or the golden retriever on the right ... have petted them both through the fence and have taken them home when they got out. Much more afraid of the neighbour on the left, she looks like a bulldog with rabies and has some serious bipolar issues. Seriously though...

    New gun and self defence rules will reduce crime in South Africa: Cele

    Also we socialize our dogs as pets since we do not want them to attack us, our children or friends and family visiting. Then we expect them to magically disregard years of social conditioning when the bad men show up.
