To put it in laments terms... Very few people hunt using a handgun so the state doesn't see it as a safety issue...

That was the whole argument when the state was looking at when they were discussion allowing rifles for deer hunting was the safety aspect of it...

Personally, I wish they would just ban ANY rifle cartridge if a weapon that is capable of firing it CANNOT be used to hunt with... Either allow all, or none... Keep it simple!
