(005875.811-:E-000062.43:N-AC:R-SU:C-30:V)
[I am curious what exactly they were doing to the weapons. Jan]
Willem Botha (59) a prominent businessman and firearms dealer of “Die Skietwinkel” appeared in the Bloemfontein Magistrates Court for contravening the Firearms Control Act, Act 60 of 2000.
He was arrested on Wednesday, 19 May 2021 by the Hawks’ National Priority Violent Crime (NPVC) on the same day of his court appearance. This follows an intense investigation from a pending case into major contraventions of the Firearms Control Act that linked to a gunsmith in Bloemfontein.
In October 2020, about 262 tampered and prohibited rifle barrels were confiscated for further investigation from Trueworx, owned by Mr Izak Hattingh. Consequently Hattingh was arrested and he appeared in the Bloemfontein’s Magistrate Court same day of his arrest. On Tuesday, 18 May 2021, he briefly appeared again and is expected to be back in the same court 24 June 2021.
The case against Botha was remanded to the 9 June 2021, whilst he was released on R500-00 bail.

Today we look at deception and mind games in war. Our topic is the American Civil War, especially the Confederates who were outnumbered and outgunned. Unlike the Union, the Confederates lacked many things. But despite these serious disadvantages, the Confederates were amazingly creative, daring and brave.

White Shop: Winds of Destruction - The best book ever written about the Rhodesian Air Force
I have read this book from end to end. This is unquestionably the best military book ever written about the Rhodesian Air Force. This is not just the story of a pilot. This is the story of a pilot who was an innovator who invented weapons and tried out all sorts of ideas. He spent a lot of time in combat as well. Jan.
