What is required to purchase a firearm in Hawaii?

  1. Hawaii driver's license

  2. Permit to Acquire Firearms

  3. A U.S. Passport

  4. Proof of Military Service

The correct answer is: Permit to Acquire Firearms

In Hawaii, a Permit to Acquire Firearms is required to purchase a firearm. This permit is issued by the police department of the county where the purchase will take place. This permit process involves background checks and in-person application, ensuring that only those who are legally allowed to possess firearms are able to purchase them. A Hawaii driver's license may be used as part of the identification process, but the Permit to Acquire Firearms is the primary requirement for purchasing a firearm in Hawaii. Having a U.S. Passport or proof of military service is not a requirement for purchasing a firearm in Hawaii.
