Laws in France?

My Marlin is owned with a hunting licence. You can buy it with a hunting or shooting licence and its sale is recorded at a local governement agency. There is no limit in numbers of hunting firearms you can own and if you stop hunting, you can keep them, which is not the case of modern shooting handguns for example.
Black powder replicas are free to own if you're over 18, and you can have as many as you want, but they must be historical(ie The Ruger Old Army is not).
Assault rifles are strictly forbidden in France for both hunters or shooters, so the only people owning them are drug dealers and terrorists.

There is no such thing as an "assault rifle".
Assault is an action; a verb, not a noun.

How hard or expensive is it to find a place to hunt? As I recall, there is a fair amount of public land in the mountains, but not really otherwise. I'm not sure if you can just go hunting on public land there the way you can in the states if you feel like it. My cousin has a beach house in Normandie, (and lives in Paris) but doesn't hunt, so he knows nothing about accessing it. I'd like to visit him and do it with him if I could, and he said he'd like to as well.
By the way, the Musee d'Invalides in Paris has perhaps the most stunning collection of BP guns I've ever seen.
