You can buy any long gun in Nevada (that is legal in Hawaii). No waiting period. Clark County used to have a waiting period but was abolished in 2015

Clark County was the only Nevada county that had firearm registration and local gun laws until 2015. SB 175 and SB 240 were signed by Gov. Sandoval (6/2/2015). They eliminated the 'blue card' handgun registration system and other local firearm ordinances in Clark County. Handguns do not need to be registered anymore or sales completed at a police station.

do you need a hawaii permit to acquire?

Nope!

You can buy any long gun across state lines without a permit to acquire as a Hawaii resident.

For a quick down and dirty go here... https://www.nevadacarry.org/buying-and-selling-guns.html    or  https://www.gunstocarry.com/gun-laws-state/nevada-gun-laws/

So what are you looking to get? 

When SA was still around, they could usually get rifles from the major manufacturers (Remington, Savage, etc) at prices that were pretty comparable to what I could find online.  So I never really looked that closely at buying a rifle out of state and bringing it back.  Now that I'd be facing shipping and FFL fees, buying out of state might be a good option.  Still need to factor in the gun case and shipping though.

Only additional input(s) that maybe helpful is the larger chains, ie. Sportsman's, Bass Pro, etc., may not sell to you based on their company policy covering sales to out of state customers (FFL transfer required). I have bought long guns without hassle from Cabela's in both Utah & Arizona as well but now that they're part of Bass Pro that maybe a no-go sadly. However, I've purchased several long guns, as recently as November, from two or three LGS in Vegas with no issues, EzPz. Do some research as some of the bigger shops gouge like a MF. Again there at least a couple/three that are less travelled and one can find some pretty solid deals, even with the brutal sales tax.

Have a great trip

I’m planning on taking a trip to the mainland. Looking to buy some goodies.
 
Looking to pick up a pistol, rifle and maybe some ammo from Arizona.

My understanding is that pistols have to be transferred AZ FFL to HI FFL. When should I apply for my PTA? After I make the purchase or when it arrives in Hawaii?

Also when I pack ammo does it need to be in a separate piece of luggage from my clothes? Or can I pack it together?

It will be my first time purchasing from out of state so I’m not too sure what the process is.

Mahalo I’m advance 🤙🏽

With the clothes is fine.  I put it at the bottom of a rolling bag.

Make it accessible so easy for the counter to eyeball it at check-in.   Do not want to unpack the damn bag at the counter.  Fill out a tag with name and address.

Taken several toys to the mainland and it was smooth, other than American wanting you to pick up the ammo carrying back at baggage service.  Southwest just had it on the carousel.

That said, coming back to this benighted state, I have no idea.

but now that they're part of Bass Pro that maybe a no-go sadly.

Fairly sure last time I was in the Sportsmans in Tucson lat month, they had a sign about the Bass deal being off.
FWIW.

Read throughly, and print both TSA and airline policies and have them handy when checking in, or otherwise dealing with airline employees.  You'll get various interpretations.  I say be somewhat ready to go with it, but also good to know the stated policy.

^^^ Because pulling it up on your phone might be an issue. Either no internet or frustration trying to find the info.  OG paper is the easiest.

I’ve called a few shops in the Tucson area. I didn’t get a straight YES on my inquiries.

Some shops said I HAD to be a AZ Resident or a resident of a bordering state. Even though I have a CCW through AZ. Another said I can purchase but it just needs to be sent through FFL.

Anyone has had experience buying in AZ?

“

I have brought in several handguns from mainland over the years. No pta required, since they were acquired elsewhere. Just took them to local pd and registered within 5 days no problemo.

-- Non-residents need to comply with several additional criteria:

• the firearm must be legally possessible in the buyer’s state of residence
• the transaction must be legal in the purchaser’s state of residence (that means you need a valid long gun or handgun PTA)
• Immediate possession of long guns is allowed if this is allowed in the state of residence (HI allows immediate possession when you present a valid long gun PTA)
• Purchased handguns will be shipped by the dealer in Arizona to a licensed dealer (FFL [Federal Firearms License]) in the state of residence.

https://www.azccw.com/purchasing-firearm-arizona/

These AZ procedures follow federal firearm laws. 

When you refer to firearms as "toys" instead of providing specific types (handgun, long gun, etc.), it's difficult to provide you a straight YES or NO answer.  The answers are contingent on the firearms you intend to shop for.

As for you having a non-resident AZ CCW, that doesn't offer any special benefits when purchasing.  Either you're a resident of the state, or you're a non-resident.  State and federal laws are based on your state of legal residence.

As for the "bordering states" answers you got, a lot of that depends on the store's policies.  Some stores are more strict than the law requires, so they may ship your long gun purchases to a HI FFL just like they do handguns.  All depends.  That's why it's a good idea to call the shops before you travel and ask about their policies.

You should plan on taking your long gun PTA if that's what you want to buy.  Most other state's FFLs know that HI requires a PTA.  If you present a long gun permit, they can see that you've complied with that HI requirement.  If you are able to buy the long gun and carry it back with you, the only thing left is to register it as an out of state gun you already own.  If you try to register it as a new purchase, HPD will expect it to be transferred to you from a local FFL.

Handgun permits are always applied for after the items are in the hands of your HI FFL, since they are technically considered the transferor of the firearm.  They must submit the proper paperwork to HPD, which can only happen after it's in their hands.  So, even if you have the serial number and specs for the application, trying to get a jump on the waiting period by applying ahead of the gun arriving at the FFL isn't recommended.
