Gentleman, I would like to determine if becoming a member of a SAAACA is for me or not.

I have a keen interest in history in general; including small arms, UDF in the Somme during WW1 and North Africa during WW2, but especially the early development of the dedicated individual marksman as appose to the "volley" infantry we see early 1800s. This development of the marksman is directly linked to the evolvement/development in small arms.

I would like to start expanding on my "collection" of specific fire arms, but at this stage it is only a hobby for me.

I also already have dedicated hunter and dedicated sport shooter status.

Here in lies my problem - do I license future fire arms under my existing dedicated status or do I become a collector?

Please advise
