Gun laws in Hawaii regulate the sale, possession, and use of firearms and ammunition in the state of Hawaii in the United States. ==Summary== Hawaii〔(State Firearms Laws and Published Ordinances for Hawaii – ATF )〕〔("State Gun Laws: Hawaii" ), National Rifle Association – Institute for Legislative Action. Retrieved December 31, 2012.〕〔("Hawaii State Law Summary" ), Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence. Retrieved December 31, 2012.〕 is a "may issue" state for concealed carry. "In an exceptional case, when an applicant shows reason to fear injury to the applicant's person or property," a license to carry a pistol or revolver (which allows both open and concealed carry) may be granted or denied at the discretion of the county police chief.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Hawaii Revised Statutes §134–9: Licenses to carry )〕 In practice however very few concealed carry licenses are granted, and issuance of carry permits is normally limited to active or retired law enforcement officers, security professionals and military members. As of July 2014 there were 183 active Handgun Carry Licenses in Hawaii, out of a population of 1.4 million.〔(Murder rate drops as concealed carry permits rise, study claims ), Foxnews.com, July 9, 2014.〕〔("Women Tell Lawmakers They Want the Right to Protect Themselves with a Concealed Firearm", ''Hawaii Reporter'', February 17, 2006 )〕 Permits are valid in the issuing county only. Hawaii does not recognize concealed carry permits issued by other states.〔(Hawaii Concealed Carry CCW Laws and Information on carryconcealed.net ) 〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Hawaii Concealed Carry Permit Information on )〕 Acquiring a firearm in Hawaii requires a permit to acquire, issued to qualified applicants by the county police chief. There is a minimum 14-20 day waiting period for receiving a permit. A separate permit is required for each handgun(s) transaction to be acquired (valid for a period of 10 days), while a "long gun" permit can be used for any number of rifles or shotguns for a period of one year. In addition to passing a criminal background check, applicants must provide an affidavit of mental health, and agree to release their medical records. First time applicants must be fingerprinted by the FBI (fee applies). When applying to acquire a handgun, a handgun safety training course affidavit or hunter's education card is also required. Firearms acquired within the state must be registered with the chief of police within 5 days. Firearms brought in from out of state, including those owned prior to moving to Hawaii, must be registered within 3 days of arrival. Registration of firearms brought in from out of state does not involve a waiting period, however a FBI fingerprint and background check will be conducted. Registration is not required for black-powder firearms or firearms manufactured before 1899. Carrying a loaded firearm, concealed or not concealed, including in a vehicle, is a class A felony. Unloaded firearms that are secured in a gun case and are accompanied by a corresponding permit are allowed to be transported in a vehicle between the permitted owner's residence or business and: a place of repair; a target range; a licensed dealer's place of business; an organized, scheduled firearms show or exhibit; a place of formal hunter or firearm use training or instruction; or a police station. Fully automatic firearms, shotguns with barrels less than 18 inches long, and rifles with barrels less than 16 inches long are prohibited by state law. Also banned are handgun magazines that can hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition, and semi-automatic handguns with certain combinations of features that the state has defined as assault pistols.〔 Non-residents may transport a firearm to the state and requires registration at a police station within 72 hours of arrival. Current law requires fingerprinting and photograph. A permit is provided for each firearm make/model/serial number. Subsequent registration of other firearms do not require the fingerprinting and photograph (nor the fee). The current first time fingerprinting fee is $14.75 (November 2015)and is only payable in money order or cash with exact change. Once registered the permit is valid statewide in all counties. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gun laws in Hawaii」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
