Is it legal to openly carry a firearm in Hawaii?

  1. Yes, without a permit

  2. Yes, with a permit

  3. No

  4. It varies by island

The correct answer is: No

In Hawaii, it is not legal to openly carry a firearm. Hawaii is a may-issue state for concealed carry permits, meaning that individuals must have a permit to carry a concealed firearm, and open carry is generally not allowed. Therefore, the correct answer is that it is not legal to openly carry a firearm in Hawaii. The other options are incorrect as Hawaii law requires a permit for carrying a firearm, whether openly or concealed, and the laws regarding firearm carry are consistent across the islands of Hawaii.
