What is the penalty for carrying a firearm without a permit in Hawaii?

  1. Fine only

  2. Imprisonment only

  3. Fine and imprisonment

  4. No penalty

The correct answer is: Fine and imprisonment

In Hawaii, the penalty for carrying a firearm without a permit is both a fine and imprisonment. This is because Hawaii has strict laws regulating the possession and carrying of firearms, and doing so without a permit is considered a serious offense. The combination of a fine and imprisonment serves as a deterrent to individuals who may consider carrying a firearm unlawfully. It is important for individuals in Hawaii to be aware of and comply with the state's firearm laws to avoid facing these penalties.
