    Default The Firearms Trade and Allied Workers Union

    Any Legal Eagles out there that could tell us how to get this started.


    I think that if everyone who derived a " Legal living from the sale, use of
    firearms etc" ( Staff at Gun shops, Hunting industry, trackers and the like )
    were to start an "Open" Union the rest of us could then Join.

    Does anyone know if such an Union already exists ?

    now this man has foresight. this is something which could be the first step to a strong forward movement.

    whats is COSATU's stance on gun ownerwhip? it will probably be a good start to get in touch with them in order to get to s starting point. they have the infrastructure to guide a course if this nature.... imo

    I am in !
    I am studying an awesome brand of leg fighting which was inspired by dung beetles and I think my brand of Kraft Manure is superior to all other styles ever invented. Furthermore I challenge all other manurists to a rolling contest where we shall establish whose manure ball is the biggest! I shall call it Honest Kraft Manure and declare it superior to all other brands of manure and will tell you that I have claimed the lineage directly to Imshi the great Dragon Kru Master Beetler who invented manuring, by gathering all manure from different animals together and making it work as the worlds most effective fertilizer. I proved myself by being members of not one but three super elite special gardening departments who were responsible for spreading manure to combat weed infestations!

    Hi camoflage as far as i know... and according to a general write up i read on trade unions (a trade unions must have a constitution, must be aligned with Labour Relation Act, not be affiliated with any political party, not be formed to avaid any law) This is quoted directly from the article so some of these aspects may not affect a firearm related union. This is just what i have read so i could be wrong.

    Thanks shootem
    My labour law is a bit rusty. I remember unions need a constitution etc. Probably very simple to cut & paste one from somehere.

    Regarding unions & political party affiliation: It would seem that this is not so in reality.
