What is the mandatory waiting period before receiving a firearm after purchasing it in Hawaii?

  1. 24 hours

  2. 5 business days

  3. 14 calendar days

  4. No waiting period

The correct answer is: 5 business days

In Hawaii, the correct answer is B, a mandatory waiting period of 5 business days before an individual can receive a firearm after purchasing it. This waiting period allows for a background check to be completed before the firearm is transferred to the buyer. It is important to adhere to this waiting period as part of the state's regulations to ensure that individuals who purchase firearms do not pose a threat to public safety.
