Today in our studio we have our old friend Simon from New Zealand. Hi, Simon. Kia Ora. 你好. Kia Ora, Kia Ora. So I remember last time when we were doing the recording, you mentioned something about hunting, apparently you hunt now?Yeah. That is right Lulu. Since returning to New Zealand 10 years ago, 11years ago, I have taken up hunting.Okay. So I thought that would be a very interesting albeit quite foreign concept to a lot of our listeners. I thought let's explore that topic. Topic of hunting. Yes.First of all, and forgive me for being completely ignorant in this aspect. First of all, is it legal to hunt in New Zealand? Like, for example, are people allowed to have guns, weapons? Yeah, so in New Zealand, it is legal to have guns, although you need to get a firearms license, unlike the States where it seems that everyone has 27 guns; in New Zealand, you have to go through training. You've got to go through quite a significant police background check, mental health check, before you're able to get your firearms license. Without a firearms license, you can't buy a gun, you can't take ownership of a gun, you can't buy ammunition or anything related to guns. Okay. I assume you also need to register. That's correct. You have to register the firearms. You've got to have a gun safe in your property which has to be approved by the government. And the police will regularly come to your house and ask to see the gun safe and the gun... and make sure everything is stored properly. Okay, it's technically illegal for example, for me to say, Simon, you're my friend, can you lend me your gun? You cannot do that. That's correct. Although if you said Simon, let's go hunting together. As long as one of us has a firearms license, we can go hunting with someone does not have a firearms license. However, if you do something bad, if you start firing the gun up at the air at passing planes, then it's the person who has the firearms license that you're with that will be in trouble. I see. So whoever owns the gun holds that responsibility. That's correct. But I'm assuming you also have restrictions on what kind of firearms you are allowed to own. You're not allowed handguns. No. Pistols, that sort of thing. So in certain situations, people can apply for a license for a handgun. But it's very uncommon and it's highly regulated, also semiautomatic and automatic rifles just are totally illegal. A few years ago, we had a shooting event in Christchurch. The terrorist opened fire at a mosque and killed a number of people. And I think the next day our Prime Minister basically outlawed automatic and semi automatic rifles. 就是自动和半自动步枪. But I'm assuming with hunting, you just use regular rifles? 普通的步枪That's correct. So, sort of a bolt, a bolt action rifle, so it'll be one shot, bang, and then you have to ... reload, use the bolt and reload, and then the next shot.
