Thread: Hunting in France. Differences to NZ. Just for reference

You can have semi autos In France, but until last year all military calibers were not allowed (556/223 ,etc) . Rifles that look similar to military rifles are banned in hunting. Id say where we lived 80% of the land is privately owned by cow/pig and sheep farmers. Its a mutual respect that people can hunt across each-others land . a lot of English were frowned at as we tend to buy a property with land then apply for a no hunt permit ( Chasse Interdit ) as English as a nation are not used to this. 67 million people in France as opposed to 55 million in England (France being twice the land mass)

Hey, Im not here to change any laws in NZ. Just enlightening people how things work elsewhere. I liked it because I didnt even need a car to go hunting. Id shoot sling it over my shoulder and walk home. No need for helicopters or emergency beacons
