  1. next up is another kist for second child and then some pots for the garden
  2. my lastest effort. Nothing fancy but had fun with the new circular saw
  3. this brings back good memories of wood work at school. I really wish I had a decent garage with space for proper wood working equipment and space to actually work. A pity though that wood is also getting more and more expensive
  4. except he let go right at the end
  5. holy crap, that's a lot of money to pedal and go nowhere
  6. buddy of mine gets me tickets on some reward system. R30 for 2 tickets. Then we go to clicks for cooldrink and sweets.
  7. it's my week end play toy
  8. I recon if we wait 6 months after these are available someone on this hub will have bought one, realise he can't afford it or decide to upgrade again and will be selling these for a bit less than the new price. Although it'll still be over R100k which is just insane for a bicycle
  9. broccoli and chicken soup followed by two mince samosas
  10. left over kfc

    RIFLE

    Thanks. does the firearm store then keep then gun once you've bought it until you get the license? and if your license application is declined, will they then refund you? and if you want to buy privately would I need to agree with the seller to keep the gun until I get the license? A lot of sellers might not want to do this

    RIFLE

    don't know their range, just seen a few and was wondering if the brand is good. sorry guys I am still trying to clarify the process in my head. I understand that I have to do the competency tests and then get the proficiency certificate. I then have to ensure I have a safe installed and apply for the license. Once I have the license I can purchase a rifle. Does the license then get updated with the details of the specific rifle I have purchased so that the license cannot be used for another rifle as well? I'm just not sure what happens first, do I get the license, then buy a gun and then update the license with the details? Or do I have to have the rifle details as part of the license submission? Hope I'm explaining myself properly. Also, if I find a gun I really want before I get the license, is it possible to arrange with a gun shop to essentially keep the gun until I get the license?

    RIFLE

    Was chatting to my father in law last week and as part of his job he handles lots of estates and wrapping them up in the event of a death. He says he often comes across firearms that the living parties don't want. So he says I must just tell him what calibre I'd like and he'll keep an eye out for something. Recons he can get one for a few hundred rand.....sweet. No to just write the test

    thanks. I have no interest in a shotgun or handgun so might just go for the rifle

    I have been emailing a few training places but thought I'd ask here How long is a proficiency / certificate valid for before you have to get the actual license? And I know you get different types of licenses for hand guns, rifles etc, but is a licence specific to a specific weapon? So would you need to get two rifle licenses if you have 2 rifles? Or do they add the serial codes for each rifle onto one license?
