    South Africa would be better if citizens were not armed - Bheki Cele

    Came here to say the same thing. SAPS cant confiscate firearms that are lost or stolen. Even if they dont come door to door to get them, a lot of us wont be rushing to the police station to hand them in.

    How much does it cost to get a gun license

    Theres no paperwork for competency. Just fill in some forms. Applying for the license is paperwork, gun owners of south africa have lawyers that will help you with that paperwork and at a reduced rate if you are a member

    Farmer allegedly injures 3 after opening fire on protesters blocking his path

    For those of you considering getting a firearm, if you join Gun Owners South Africa you get access to their lawyers at a discounted rate. I just did an appeal for a license that was denied for a semi automatic rifle and they handled all of it. Just sent them all the paperwork. They also do the...

    The Audi Thread

    Better to do it early as they have a mileage and age life span, whichever comes first. I was a few months away from having to do the belt on my s3 and the bearing on my water pump failed right outside my house, belt started rubbing on the metal cover luckily I just shut off the engine before...
