No waiting period

10 days

In Hawaii, the waiting period for acquiring a firearm after purchasing is 10 days. This waiting period allows for background checks to be completed before the buyer takes possession of the firearm. It is a safety measure designed to prevent individuals who may pose a risk from quickly obtaining a firearm. Waiting periods also provide a cooling-off period to reduce impulsive acts of violence. The other options are incorrect because they do not reflect the specific waiting period required by Hawaii law, which is 10 days.
