The hunting season is in progress and the staff of Arms for Africa is set to satisfy not only the requirements of the regular hunters that flock to the numerous hunting farms in the province, but also to provide in the needs of the man on the street.
Owners Marius, Anina and Heinrich du Preez became the sole owners of the business four years ago after being involved with the previous owners for some ten years and have never looked back. “We stock a wide variety of fire arms, ammunition, reloading equipment and accessories which includes binoculars, telescopes and clothing to ensure that our business provides a one stop destination. We also stock bows and accessories and provide advice on the appropriate arms and ammunition to make your hunting trip an unforgetable experience,” Marius says.
Marius is the responsible person for the Polokwane Shooting Centre in terms of the Fire Arms Control Act and Arms for Africa provides training for applications for fire arm licences and assists with the motivation and administration thereof.
Arms for Africa is also accredited to provide fire arm proficiency training for businesses and individuals and is competent to attend to the prescribed transfer of fire arm licences in deceased estates.
“Our sales staff have more than 50 years’ combined experience in the fire arm business and is strongly supported by our administrative component,” says Marius and adds that the success of the business is attributed to the continued support of loyal customers for more than 27 years. “Our customers become our friends and many of our clients from outside the city sometimes just pops in to say hello and share stories on their hunting experiences,” Marius said.
