The correct answer is: Both fine and imprisonment

Carrying a firearm without a permit in Hawaii is considered a serious offense. The correct answer is both fine and imprisonment because the penalty for this offense typically includes not only a monetary fine but also the possibility of imprisonment. Hawaii has strict gun laws in place, and individuals must obtain the necessary permits to legally possess and carry firearms. By enforcing both fines and imprisonment, the state aims to deter individuals from unlawfully carrying firearms, thereby enhancing public safety.
