    Wait.. What.. I don't mean to hijack the thread and forgive me for my lack of naivety and at the risk of asking dumb assed questions. Are you saying that you cannot fire your legally owned (C endorsment?) full-auto firearms, even on a range? ever ever? Also; can you not use your legally owned pistol to hunt in NZ?

    No, Police Bushmasters are semi auto only. Only NZA has full auto.

    You can't shoot it with live ammunition, but can shoot with blanks if demonstrating it to someone to sell to prove it works, and no, you cannot shoot your pistol outside an approved range.

    It's all here.

    If your a keen bean you can build your own range at home if you have land and get it certified.

    Yes, a certified / approved range. Different word, same meaning. What you can't do is whip out your pistol on farmland, tuck it into your belt and go pig hunting.
