when getting a second handgun, do you have to pay the 16.50 again or do you just go down and apply with no charge?

One-time fee.  After you're fingerprinted, you don't have to pay again. 

As it stands now, there are no other fees besides fingerprinting.  I hope it stays that way, too!

 That's a relief.  So just go down, apply, wait 2 weeks, then pick up gun and register. Got it.

So if your applying for a first handgun and already have a long gun permit which did fingerprinting, no need do it again right?  Even though its different type permit

There is only a one time fingerprinting, and fee for the fingerprinting. 

Just wanted to remind everyone the earliest you can renew your long gun permit is 14 days before expiration

Quick Question!  When you renew the long gun permit, do I have to wait another 14 days or is it just renewed on the spot for another year?

Gotta reapply and wait so go 14 days prior to expiration

Thnaks! 

FYI,

Had my filled out online form rejected.  apparently one error was input wrong FFL dealer on form.  They wanted the local FFL not the origin / seller.

Other issue of note was that they had me refill out an old form because they said they needed a copy for the FFL dealer.   I guess you should make copies and have carbon paper for their convenience.

PS.  I got the normal star treatment with paper work being tossed backed to me HAHA!!! 

ah just glad the line was short.

Sorry if this is a stupid question.

I am on the BI and I have a post in the Classified: Firearms section with some of my rifles.

If I find a buyer on another island. What steps would you folks recommend I follow to stay safe and legal.

This is how I see it;

-Agree on price with buyer
-Buyer sends payment and copy of FFL info
-I ship to their FFL via USPS, FedEx, or UPS (as long guns can be shipped to an FFL from a private citizen)
-Buyer then goes through the standard process for acquiring the rifle from the FFL

Am I over complicating this?

Thanks

Per KK reasoning, I am on the Big Island. To make it easy just give guns to me so you don't have to hassle with selling!    Maybe I should move this to drunk post???

I was going to give you an even more complicated answer to your not too complicated question!  Instead, I think you should contact an FFL in your county, and have them explain to you what is required by law. 

Even if an FFL is not required for a resident-to-resident transfer between islands, it might serve to protect you and the seller from the remote chance one of you decides to rip the other off. 

The buyer's FFL can hold the firearm until you verify payment, and likewise buyer can inspect the firearm before sending payment.  The FFL can be the "escrow" for the gun until you tell him to release it.  Then the FFL will handle checking the buyer's ID and permit when the gun's picked up.

If the buyer is military or LE, OGC only charges a $25 FFL fee.  Regular price is $40.  A small price to pay for a valuable service.

Hope that helps!   

Thanks!

Quick question: If your long gun permit (the yearly one) has EXPIRED, then what? Just go and get another one just like the first time? Is there any difference between renewal BEFORE it expires (within the 14 days before expiration) or anytime AFTER expiration?

Thanks

Same thing, just if you wait till it expires, you'll be 2 weeks without a valid permit.

I'm going to let mine expire this year in an effort to slow down my gun acquisitions this year.

OK, but surely you guys don't buy a long arm EVERY WEEK DO YOU? Or do you?!

I wish I had that much budget! LOL!

I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that it might incriminate me.

What, to the boss woman? LOL

I can't even be caught looking at Amazon most of the time LOL

Just kidding.

Problem is I am very impulsive.

If I see something I want, I get it.

Haha that might be a GOOD impulse to have, considering so many items these days are on several months backorder!
