Legal and Activism / Re: HONOLULU POLICE CHIEF AND STATE OF HAWAII SUED FOR SECOND AMENDMENT VIOLATIONS
« on: April 05, 2013, 06:14:20 PM »
To my brothers and sisters in paradise:  Stick with the fight!

I live in Illinois, the only state with NO concealed carry (period - not even "lip-service" to it in the state laws w/ police Chiefs who never issue, such as in your state).  We can't even apply to be denied... :(

However, our state rifle association just helped win a case in Court and the Judge ordered that if the state legislature did not enact a CCW law by June, by judicial edict (order), we could legally carry!!  (I kind-of hope the legislature, which is controlled by corrupt, far-left democrats, doesn't get its act together, because they will probably make a restrictive law...)

Anyway - I wanted you all to know that there might be light at the end of the tunnel!  Hawaii and the west coast federal appeals courts seem to be very left-leaning, so the battle may be hard, but with Heller and other recent US Supreme Court decisions, I think you'd win this if you had to appeal all the way to SCOTUS.

Good luck!!

FAQs / Re: Getting and registering a gun in Hawaii
« on: March 03, 2013, 06:52:04 PM »
Sorry in advance if this is the wrong place to post these questions...

My family is considering a move to Hawaii.  Still not sure which island, but definitely not Kauai.  We've visited Oahu twice and plan on visiting BI and Maui next. 

My first big question regarding HI's state laws is this:  What if an out-of-stater moves to HI with firearms?  Just need to register them, correct?

Question #2:  What if a person owns a LOT of firearms, say a couple hundred or more?  Would a person in that predicament have to haul all of them down to the PD, or would they send a team out to your house to make the process easier?  How long does it take to register 1 firearm? (So I can calculate how many days it would take to register them all?)

Question #3: Because it was made before 1899, I do NOT have to register my 1892 Krag rifle, correct?

Question #4: Are there any weird restrictions I may have missed, like a handgun with too short of a barrel, or rifle with folding stock? (None of my firearms are NFA weapons, and thereby free from any federal registration.)

Question #5:  Since I already own them, is there any need to obtain a permit to acquire? (Say, so that they can verify I'm not kuku for coco-puffs?)

Question #6:  Is the 10-rd magazine limit just on handguns, or is it also on rifle magazines?

Lastly, and this is off-topic, so I'm sorry, but...  After checking the FAQ on ranges, I noted none were listed on the BI, and only 1 was listed on Maui, yet, there's plenty of gunshops on both those islands...  Where does one shoot at on BI and Maui, other than that one range listed on Maui?  (The answer to this may help narrow down which islands to look at moving to.)
