Hi guys, totally new here and totally new to firearms... So new in fact I'm still waiting to here back from the SAPOL for my licences approval letter for training.
Anyways, in the mean time I'm looking forward and making plans for when it comes through. a friend of mine owns 400 acres who's fine with the idea of me shooting on his property, however both him and me have no clue if its legal.
All I can find is I need a written permit from the land owner granting me permission but as stupid as it sounds is shooting allowed on his land as it is zoned as residential?!?
I mean my 500ms block in town is residential but permit or not I think the boys in blue wouldn't take kindly to me letting off a few rounds on it. So does it have to be private property off a certain zone? Anyone know the definition and or where I can find something clear on what the rules are as to what properties are legal.
Thanks,
Tim
P.S. Any police reading this could you pretty pretty please move my application up the list
