New RSA firearm laws & plastic guncases
      #13146 - 07/04/04 03:18 AM

Folks,

I've been getting a few e-mails from forum members who are concerned that their non-metal guncases might be illegal after June 1st when the new laws come into force.

The metal case requirement ONLY applies to RSA registered firearms dealers who are transporting large consignments of firearms.

Ordinary hunters will still be able to use plastic/ABS cases such as tuffpak.

This information comes from Inspector Conroy who is head of the Firearm Import department at JIA. If you have any queries he can be contacted at +2711 8278 72906 from outside RSA or 082 787 2906 from within RSA.

So all you Tuffpak owners can stop panicking!

Great news.

If a metal gun cas WAS required hell all I could take in the weight limit would be the gun case, my double and a tooth brush.
