What is required for a non-resident to bring a firearm into Hawaii?

Registration with the local police within 5 days
No registration is required
A special non-resident permit
An invitation from a law enforcement agency

The correct answer is: Registration with the local police within 5 days

A non-resident bringing a firearm into Hawaii is required to register with the local police within 5 days. This requirement is in place to ensure that firearms brought into the state are accounted for and are in compliance with Hawaii's gun laws. It is essential for non-residents to adhere to this registration process to avoid any legal issues or penalties related to firearm possession in the state. Option B, stating that no registration is required, is incorrect. Non-residents must register their firearms with the local police within the specified timeframe upon bringing them into Hawaii. Option C, a special non-resident permit, may sound plausible, but the actual requirement is to register with the local police within 5 days, not to obtain a special permit. Option D, an invitation from a law enforcement agency, is unrelated to the process of bringing a firearm into Hawaii. The correct procedure is to register the firearm with the local police within the designated timeframe.
