I might be moving to Hawaii if the GF gets a job she applied for there. I was actually stationed there and took my family on a trip there a few years back. Beautiful place to be...but to live, I'm not having very fond thoughts.
I know Hawaii has probably the strictest gun laws on the books. It's a shall issue state and each firearm purchase requires a separate permit. All firearms must be registered within 48 hours as well. After searching for answers I'm wondering if anyone here is experienced enough to provide the answers.
What happens with the firearms I already own? Am I allowed to bring them in state? Is there a time period in which I'm allowed before having to register them if I AM allowed to bring them in state. I know my AR would be a no no according to their ban. I know a carry permit is hard to get if not impossible but I'm wondering if that's the same permit I'd need to purchase a firearm there? They do have a castle law...bout the only thing going for them.
I'm looking for answers... not criticism on moving there.
