In accordance with its mission and Constitution, SAAACA is actively involved in representing the interests of all fields of associated collectors to various Legislators, Regulators and other authorities As the largest Police Accredited collectors association in South Africa, SAAACA has, actively been involved in representation on behalf of collectors to the relevant authorities in terms of the revised South African Firearms Control Act, enacted in the course of 200 . SAAACA is privileged to be included in the various working groups involved in the planning of the practical implementation of the Act This Act profoundly affects the collectors of all forms of
firearms and ammunition and it is no small credit to the contributing
Committee of SAAACA that the status of these collectors is recognised and
entrenched in this Act The involvement of SAAACA continues after the enactment of
this Act and it is essential that the association maintain its position at
the forefront of any regulatory activities Currently, the legislative activities of SAAACA members have been funded by monies drawn from membership dues, a once off levy, fund raising activities and other donations made by many interested and concerned individuals These funds have primarily utilised for legal, travel, some PR and administration costs. Although assisted in a limited manner by various sympathetic members of the legal profession, good counsel is extremely costly and the Association must continue to maintain a substantial level of funding in this regard. Donations of funds or in kind are continuously sought in
this regard and any offers, regardless of magnitude are always gratefully
received. Persons wishing to make a donation may deposit funds to: Bankers: Nedbank Branch: Melrose Arch Branch
