Blank Guns

Blank guns are non-lethal alternatives to firearms. They feel, sound, and work just the same. These days, blank guns are becoming a sought-after means of self-defence as they are legal but still sound and look like a firearm. Although, they have many other uses other than self-defence, including in movies or drama productions as props, starting pistols, and firing flares.

These guns look like real firearms, but they cannot shoot live ammunition. You load them the same way you would a firearm, but they have less recoil. You do not have to have a permit or license for a blank gun. Whether you are looking to shoot pepper cartridges, make a loud noise, fire teargas, or just look dangerous, a blank gun gives its owner a sense of security. According to the explosives act, the end user does not recquire any licence or permit. Ammunition/cartridges are for use in devices exempted in terms of section 5 of the firearms control act, act no. 60 of 2000regulation 102(4) and 103(4) Blank cartridges are for firing warning shots to deter intruders. Pepper cartridges are purely for self defence, it is most effective within 6m.
