Deactivation of museum firearms
What would define a “deactivated firearm” and what procedure, if any, would need to be followed by a museum holding only “deactivated firearms”.

(1)    The following requirements apply when a person applies for the deactivation of a firearm:

(a)    The applicant must complete the relevant sections of the SAPS 521(h) (Notification of requirement to deactivate a firearm) form.  The completed notice together with the under mentioned supporting documents must be hand delivered by the applicant to the relevant Designated Firearms Officer (DFO).

(b)    The following supporting documents must be submitted:

(i)    A certified copy of the applicant's identity document or passport.

(ii)    The original licence, permit or authorisation issued to the applicant

The DFO will advise the applicant of further developments once the Central Firearms Register (Head Office) grant permission for deactivation.
