Why GOSA?
GOSA is the largest non-profit gun rights organization in South Africa. With a team of 10, (office staff and external legal team), specialising in the application of firearm related cases, our mission is to fight for the rights of the South African public to bear firearms for sport as well as self-defence.
GOSA has been on the forefront in the representation of legal matters involving the use of firearms. GOSA has also been instrumental in the making of changes to the legislation of firearm ownership and use in South Africa. Most recently we have been amicus in the Fidelity case and successfully sued for the A4 licence printouts in 2022. As a result hundreds of thousands of South Africans are now able to receive their firearms before the licence cards are printed.
As a GOSA Member, you have access to legal advice and other services.
Our motivations and appeals are drafted by our external Firearms Specialist Attorney with the assistance of our in-house counsel who is on standby 24x7 for calls relating to the legal aspect of the organization.
GOSA has built up a substantial relationship with the SAPS , both CFR and DFOs . We assist the public and members with SAPS follow ups on overdue firearm applications and competencies. https://gosaonline.co.za/Pages/Issues-with-CFR.asp
GOSA has a very active Facebook group of about 120,000 members, where all members and non members can engage and interact.
GOSA is not a call centre hoping to gain members for monetary purposes. We serve all members with a common purpose regardless of whether they are paying members or not, however, paid membership adds benefits at discounted prices. We offer a personalised experience and the work we have done has never been for profit and statistics. We have a proven track record of all our successful work and our members are happy with our services.
