I can't think of a valid reason why handgun hunting cannot be allowed in NZ.

Dougie I wouldn't be hunting with a 4" barreled pistol. These are more suited to self defense and close quarter use.

I'd be hunting with a 8" to 12" barreled "Hunting" pistol.

BTW I can leagally hunt with a Rossi 44mag 16" BBL rifle, why could I not hunt with a Ruger Redhawk 44mag revolver with a 12" bbl?

Hunting pistols would be pretty cool. Even still - like you said, there are idiots out there. Even if the arms officer says someone is fit and proper to own a firearm, I like to make that decision myself before heading out with them.

Good on you Pete. That guy seems lucky to still have two feet!
