What is the waiting period for acquiring a firearm once a permit has been granted in Hawaii?

  1. 24 hours

  2. 5 business days

  3. 10 business days

  4. 14 calendar days

The correct answer is: 10 business days

In Hawaii, once a permit has been granted, there is a waiting period of 10 business days before the acquisition of a firearm can be completed. This waiting period allows time for background checks and ensures that there is a cooling-off period before a firearm is obtained. It is essential for individuals to be aware of and observe this waiting period to promote responsible firearm ownership and safety practices.
