How to legally take guns out of/into Hawaii? DUMB LAW
« on: September 16, 2011, 09:45:46 AM »
I can't take my gun(s) to the UPS Store or post office, and I can't take them to the airport. Um... I guess I have to put it in a box and hand it off to a delivery guy from my home, making sure not to step past the threshold, or else I'm a felon!

Quote
Reference: §HRS 134-6

(c) Except as provided in sections 134-5 and 134-9, all firearms and ammunition shall be confined to the possessor's place of business, residence, or sojourn; provided that it shall be lawful to carry unloaded firearms or ammunition or both in an enclosed container from the place of purchase to the purchaser's place of business, residence, or sojourn, or between these places upon change of place of business, residence, or sojourn, or between these places and the following: a place of repair; a target range; a licensed dealer's place of business; an organized, scheduled firearms show or exhibit; a place of formal hunter or firearm use training or instruction; or a police station. "Enclosed container" means a rigidly constructed receptacle, or a commercially manufactured gun case, or the equivalent thereof that completely encloses the firearm.

I think Funtimes touched on this one a few times. Yes, rediculously made laws.

Interestingly enough, I saw a sign in the USPS post office that guns aren't allowed (unless a part of official business).

Wait... as in "you can't be carrying a gun on your person" or as in "we refuse to mail firearms"?  Because, if it's the 2nd, I need to step in there and have a word with the postmaster!

It's the first one but the way it was worded, made it kind of confusing.

I've only mailed a gun once and I don't think the clerk had ever handled that kind of thing before. I saw the "oh $#!7" on her face when I first mentioned in was a gun, but it all turned out fine..

Tom - I think he is trying to say that the Post Office isn't one of the few "legal" places a Hawaii citizen can have a gun and therefore any attempt to use it, such as to legally mail a long gun, would technically violate the law.

antoinebugleboy - feel free to clarify/correct me if I am incorrect......

I think Tom was replying to 2A, but what I was saying is what you described. It occurred to me as I was booking a flight, that I'd be violating the law when I took my guns to the airport as checked luggage.

Correct: You must magically teleport your firearm to your off-island destination.  The airport is not on the list; UPS is not on the list; USPS is not on the list.

Better get working on your teleport ray!

I built one these. HPD had to call Young Guns to see if It was legal to register. Martha wasn't available. They tried to confiscate it, but I just teleported myself back to my house. :geekdanc:

Vood... these mysterious piles of garbage keep materializing around my house.  Could you please point that thing in a different direction?

So that is where they were going? I was wondering where they would end up. I thought that by pointing that thing at politicians and selecting "hell" as the destination, they would end up in Hitlers hot condo. I had no idea they would end up in the trash pile. I am not surprised at the outcome. I did build this thing in the garage. Should have took the stimulus money. Guess the "shrimp on the treadmill" was more important. Sorry Tom.

This  back-and-forth is probably the best laugh I've had on 2aHawaii since I joined.  Flawless victory, gents.
