Hawaii State law provides qualified immunity for health providers.  There's no reason for Kaiser Hawaii to fear being held liable for clearing someone seeking a firearm permit.

I guess they think it's better to deny all of their patients who go to behavioral health their Constitutional rights rather than risk a patient committing a crime and having to answer questions.

Thanks,  I had not researched too much into it.  I'm sure liability would have come up when I talk to my director.  This is perfect. 

Man I feel bad for the person the clinic turned away saying they had to get it signed at kaiser because of insurance.  I didnt know Kaiser turned them all away. 

I'd like to handle these by asking "Are you an American Citizen?" .   

SMH......


 

Looks like it’s been a while since someone has posted in here.  I want to register for a long gun and handgun permit.  I noticed the handgun permit requires a safety course.  Where do they offer these handgun safety courses?  I live on Oahu pearl city area.

more than a few members here are handgun safety instructors
the largest and one of the longest running classes is HRA/LIFE
the Hawaii defense foundation (HDF) runs a class also (disclaimer: I teach for HDF on a rotating basis)
most of the gun stores locally teach classes or are affiliated with someone that does

Another option is the hunter safety class
It's free, it is a 2 day class, it fulfills the state requirements for handgun safety and hunter education
But it has no hands on handgun time, and has a waiting list

Welcome to the forum. Have you submitted testimony to our lovely legislators yet?

Thank you for the input I’ll check that info out.

Ooh 2 days?  Wow that’s pretty long.

No what is this in regards to?

We wage a battle for your right to own your firearm.
In the wake of las Vegas and Florida, our legislators are hell bent on passing more laws even as I write this.
You can try catching up by skimming through the legal activism threads or just click unread posts to see the many laws being proposed.
Be prepared to get angry at your lawmakers.

Also, there is the hybrid course. Its part online which covers all the book stuff and is self paced. At the end of the online course you get a voucher (which you have to pay for) and then you take the voucher to the nimitz classroom for a 4-5 hour in person class, AND a final test.

and on a side note, i was registering my rifle and i was in the room and i saw/heard the guys in the window turn away a soldier that had a memo from his commander/bc/whatever vouching for his handgun training, etc. The officer's said that they no longer accept that as a acceptable to acquire a hand gun. Is this true now? or has it been like this for awhile?

First I've heard of that.  Perhaps there was something wrong with the memo like hours not listed, no notary, etc.

Go to class at least an hour early and you'll most like get in as a standby.

Hi folks, it's been a minute since I've been active on here,  it's been a minute since I've purchased a firearm and I am wanting to get back in it, I have been turned off of purchasing new toys due to rapback.  But my interest has been renewed after a friendly conversation with a gentleman at the range this past Sunday.  He says that if I have had a background check done for a job ( i work in healthcare) then I am already in the rapback "system" or "database" and that I would only have to pay the one-time $40-something fee.  I am now willing to pay this fee, to re-acquire the "privilege" to purchase firearms. 

I have a DLNR certification to buy handguns, but my rifle permit-to-purchase has since expired a couple years ago, and like a good boy I returned the original paper permit directly to HPD firearms division (even they were impressed / surprised that I went through the trouble to do this.)

anywho, It has been a while since I've purchased anything and have some questions that I am sure you kindly folks would be willing to answer:

1. I am intending to purchase a handgun primarily,  do I need to re-new my long-gun permit to purchase in order to do so?
2. If so, is the renewal process the same as if I am applying for a new long gun permit-to-purchase? i.e I would have to go down to HPD, fill out application, provide proper ID, provide fingerprints, and wait 14 days to pickup permit?)
3. If not, can I just walk into a gun store and show the DLNR certification and buy a handgun? (and thereafter continue with the handgun application process)
4. does the handgun application require the long-gun permit, or does the long gun permit make the handgun application process easier?
5.  what does the handgun application process involve? is it similar to the long gun permit process i.e. go down to HPD, fill out application and wait 14 days?
6. the registering process is pretty straight forward and I remember what needs to be done but the permitting and purchasing process is what evades my memory.

Mahalo for your help!

If im not mistaken....

for pistols,
?2 U must obtain make, model, cal., SN, seller, etc. information prior to applying for a permit to acquire a pistol.
You take that info down to HPD, fill out permit to acquire, med waivers (+ Rapback if never done b4).
At the window, HPD hands you another application (looks like you LG permit that is good for 1year, but filled out differently) that is where you fill in the pistol info. THIS is what youre picking up in 14 days, and after you register the pistol, you will hand back this sheet.
When its your "pick up week", get your permit to aquire, go get the pistol, bring it down, register with HPD. Then they will get you your half sheet, and your all good to go.

?3 you can go to any shop with your hunters ed card to purchase, but you wont be walking out that day with the pistol tho.

?4 neither requires the other

?5 kinda....except after the 14 day wait, you still have to scramble around to register. I usually schedule my day to do it within the same day of permit p/u

Ensure pistol information is legible and accurate. If permit to acquire does not match up....SOL, restart process.

Hope this helped

Save yourself a trip.
Apply for your long gun permit at the same time. 

It has been a while since I've purchased anything and have some questions that I am sure you kindly folks would be willing to answer:

If you haven't already done so, check out the chart on page one of this thread. It pretty much still applies if you add in rap back, and yes apply for your long gun permit as long as you are at HPD applying for a handgun permit.

Attached.

thanks folks  i might as well renew the LG permit simultaneously, this will require some planning

Comprehensive. Not sure info want to go through all of that. However, how does this work with a C&R FFL?
