Under section 3.1.6 for overnight storage it states that arrangements must be made for secure storage when away from the usual facility.
A back country hut is a public place but has no secure storage.
My point is that it can be determined that laws are broken even though it's not practical to find security.
You need this.

Thats cool @Allizdog
Re Sleeping I though a cable though the action and though the bed frame (or something fixed and solid) was acceptable.
Mid 2022 son was given his licence based on 2 eye bolts in to timber in the back of the wardrobe and a cable and padlock.
No rifle present but he had to show the ability to secure one.

Storage legislation: https://www.legislation.govt.nz/regu...DLM169122.html
Because of clause 19 (5) this guidance document has legal effect: https://www.firearmssafetyauthority....e-guidance.pdf
That guidance document is the only place which specifically details when firearms must be locked away. The wording is the firearm " is not under the immediate and personal supervision of the holder or some other holder of a firearms licence".
Up to you to make interpretation of that.
