Can non-residents apply for a firearm permit in Hawaii?

  1. Yes, without any restrictions

  2. Yes, but with certain restrictions

  3. No

  4. Only for hunting purposes

The correct answer is: Yes, but with certain restrictions

While non-residents are able to apply for a firearm permit in Hawaii, they must adhere to certain restrictions. These may include being employed in the state, having a valid reason for needing a firearm, or being a member of a shooting club in Hawaii. Option A states that there are no restrictions, which is incorrect. Option C states that non-residents cannot apply for a firearm permit, which is also incorrect. Option D limits the reasons for obtaining a permit to only hunting purposes, which is not entirely accurate as non-residents may have other valid reasons for needing a firearm in Hawaii.
