Comments on: HOW TO GET A FIREARM LICENSE http://www.firearm-license.co.za How to get your firearm license Tue, 21 Feb 2012 06:40:20 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: admin http://www.firearm-license.co.za/#comment-11274 admin Fri, 17 Feb 2012 13:32:39 +0000 http://www.firearm-license.co.za/?page_id=7#comment-11274 Hi Michael If the SAPS decline your application they are suppose to send you a letter of refusal and provide you with a reason why the application is declined. You have the right to appeal the decision. It is difficult to say how long it takes before an application is approved/declined but experience show it can be anything from 6 months to 18 months (and even longer). The National Firearms Call Centre (+27 12 353 6111) can provide you with progress on your application. It is a 24-hour service. I find it easier to get help if I call after hours. Hi Michael

I have applied for a new rifle license March 2011. Ever since, I have received confirmation with regards to my competency - which was handed in with my application, but nothing further. If application / license is denied, do they inform you, or do I have to contact them? Can I trace my application, and if so, who do I contact? Kind Regards Michael Good Day.

Husband was Hijacked at gun point and other various incidents, throwing bricks through our window and theft of several items. My husband is medically boarded due to an accident that occured in 1999, which has left him with a bit of brain damage. Would I be able to apply for a gun to be able to protect ourselves? Where would I need to go for a Competency Certificate We have had some very distressing things happen at our home.
