Valdor Uren / Strand Guns
I've been doing business with Valdor Uren at Strand Guns for just over a year now.
I buy most of the spare parts and accessories for my Glocks and all my reloading accessories and supplies (except bullets) from him. I also bought my SLR and 223 ammo through him.
He has a very small shop and doesn't keep a lot of stock. I usually email for a quote, place my order, do an EFT and then collect a week or two later.
It has always been a great experience, he is always helpful and friendly, offers great advice and his prices are hard to beat. E.g. I just bought 10000 S&B small pistol primers from him for R255/1000.
For anyone staying Cape Town who is looking for a good supplier, I highly recommend his shop. Give him a call or swing by to have a chat; it will be worth your while.

I second this. Valdor is the MAN. What an absolute squire and gentleman... Alway has time for his customers regardless of how silly the query may be.

Re: Valdor Uren / Strand Guns
Hi Bighunter
Yes, he is.
I had a chat with him about that on Saturday. I understand his argument, which is that he wants to be able to defend himself honestly if it came down to a legal procedure where he has to answer in court as to whether or not he acted in a reasonable manner when he sold someone 1000 rounds of ammunition.
It only takes one guy to do something stupid.Last edited by francois.viljoen; 27-01-2013 at 19:23. Reason: lips

Respect for Valdor. He is a straight shooter and I trust him for a honest deal.

Re: Valdor Uren / Strand Guns
Well I don't understand his argument at all.
If the client has a creen license or a S16 license then the dealer cannot be at any risk at all by supplying 100000 rounds at a time.
It's black letter law. No educated guesses or reading of tea-leaves involved.

Re: Valdor Uren / Strand Guns
Sounds like someone has been watching too much CNN !! This isn't the States !!! With the rand going down the toilet at a rate of knots and ammo becoming scarce - it makes sense to buy as much as you can legally own and afford.
Having 1000 rounds in your safe has absolutely no relevance in a criminal case where you used a FA in self-defence.
