With farm attacks and murders on the rise and farmers increasingly reliant on themselves for their, their families’ and farm workers’ safety, now is the time to look to the benefits of Firearms Guardian – South Africa’s first legal insurance for legal firearms owners.

“TLU SA fully supports this initiative and encourages our members to join it,” says Mr Henry Geldenhuys, TLU SA President.

“We know that farmers are dependent on themselves to ensure their safety. We cannot rely on the police or the government. However, we also see how big the problems are that someone must deal with if he/she had to use a firearm. Firearms Guardian brings peace of mind and protects the law-abiding citizen if he/she had to use a weapon.”

Firearms Guardian is the answer to questions such as:

Have you ever wondered about the legal assistance you may need if you protect your and your family’s lives or your farm/property by using your firearm?
Ever thought about what it would be like to have a team of skilled legal practitioners at your and your family’s disposal 24/7, day and night?

The insurance protects you when you, as a licensed firearms owner, protect yourself and your family.

Firearms Guardian is a unique short-term insurance package for firearms owners. It provides coverage against legal fees and liability claims arising from self-defence, shooting accidents, criminal prosecution, hunting trips gone awry, sports shooting accidents, and many more.
