The correct answer is: Passing a written safety test

To own a firearm in Hawaii, passing a written safety test is a requirement. This safety test ensures that individuals are knowledgeable about proper gun handling, storage, and firearm safety practices. It is crucial for gun owners to understand the laws and responsibilities associated with owning a firearm to promote safe gun ownership and prevent accidents or misuse. Therefore, passing a written safety test is an essential requirement for owning a firearm in Hawaii. While being a U.S. citizen is not a requirement for owning a firearm in Hawaii, individuals must be legal residents to purchase and possess firearms in the state. Owning a home in Hawaii is also not a requirement for firearm ownership. Additionally, having a security guard license is specific to individuals working as security guards and is not a general requirement for owning a firearm in Hawaii.
