Alright, so I looked -- can't find it.

Where does our law say 18 year olds can purchase long guns and or hand guns =o ?

Federal law says 21 for pistols and pistol grip shotguns (from the factory) 18 for any long gun, and 21 for receivers and NFA items. Not that we are allowed NFA here.

Check the NRA ila website fir exact citing of the code.

What firearms were you thinking about? If you have any questions, just ask.

can or cant?  I know they cant, so there shouldn't be a law saying they can.

Hawaii right?

There are many different distinctions in firearm law. Not sure why, but always have to follow em when selling a firearm.

You can PPT transfer anything 18+.  FFL's can't sell handguns to 18-20.  Hence why NRA is suing in Texas for denying the 18 year old shooter the ability to purchase a handgun from a licensed dealer.

However, I don't see where it says someone in Hawaii could obtain a permit being 18 (other than aliens).  I am probably overlooking it .

HRS 134-2(d)

§134-2  Permits to acquire.  (a)  No person shall acquire the ownership of a firearm, whether usable or unusable, serviceable or unserviceable, modern or antique, registered under prior law or by a prior owner or unregistered, either by purchase, gift, inheritance, bequest, or in any other manner, whether procured in the State or imported by mail, express, freight, or otherwise, until the person has first procured from the chief of police of the county of the person's place of business or, if there is no place of business, the person's residence or, if there is neither place of business nor residence, the person's place of sojourn, a permit to acquire the ownership of a firearm as prescribed in this section.  When title to any firearm is acquired by inheritance or bequest, the foregoing permit shall be obtained before taking possession of a firearm; provided that upon presentation of a copy of the death certificate of the owner making the bequest, any heir or legatee may transfer the inherited or bequested firearm directly to a dealer licensed under section 134-31 or licensed by the United States Department of Justice without complying with the requirements of this section.

     (b)  The permit application form shall include the applicant's name, address, sex, height, weight, date of birth, place of birth, country of citizenship, social security number, alien or admission number, and information regarding the applicant's mental health history and shall require the fingerprinting and photographing of the applicant by the police department of the county of registration; provided that where fingerprints and photograph are already on file with the department, these may be waived.

     (c)  An applicant for a permit shall sign a waiver at the time of application, allowing the chief of police of the county issuing the permit access to any records that have a bearing on the mental health of the applicant.  The permit application form and the waiver form shall be prescribed by the attorney general and shall be uniform throughout the State.

     (d)  The chief of police of the respective counties may issue permits to acquire firearms to citizens of the United States of the age of twenty-one years or more, or duly accredited official representatives of foreign nations, or duly commissioned law enforcement officers of the State who are aliens; provided that any law enforcement officer who is the owner of a firearm and who is an alien shall transfer ownership of the firearm within forty-eight hours after termination of employment from a law enforcement agency.  The chief of police of each county may issue permits to aliens of the age of eighteen years or more for use of rifles and shotguns for a period not exceeding sixty days, upon a showing that the alien has first procured a hunting license under chapter 183D, part II.  The chief of police of each county may issue permits to aliens of the age of twenty-one years or more for use of firearms for a period not exceeding six months, upon a showing that the alien is in training for a specific organized sport-shooting contest to be held within the permit period.  The attorney general shall adopt rules, pursuant to chapter 91, as to what constitutes sufficient evidence that an alien is in training for a sport-shooting contest.  Notwithstanding any provision of the law to the contrary and upon joint application, the chief of police may issue permits to acquire firearms jointly to spouses who otherwise qualify to obtain permits under this section.

That's what I see. And then a  few sentences later it provides for 'aliens' to get long guns @ 18 if they are engaged in shooting sports. I was looking at the statute because I am going to do some videos covering each law. When I was reviewing this, I failed to see how a 18 year legal resident could obtain a permit to acquire.

Guess you have to be an alien...

first time I got my longgun permit.

   lady:   Can I help you?
    me:   Im here to apply for a longgun permit.
   lady:   first time or are you renewing?
    me:   first time.
   lady:  you over 21?

Yep, just something I am following up on .   I have to many ideas lol.

I was wondering about that too. My sons only 13 but we've been working on a mosin modernizing project. It's pretty much his when he's of age.....
