How long is the waiting period after purchasing a firearm before you can take it home in Hawaii?

There is no waiting period
48 hours
14 days
20 days

The correct answer is: 14 days

In Hawaii, the waiting period after purchasing a firearm before you can take it home is 14 days. This waiting period allows time for background checks and ensures a cooling-off period before the buyer can take possession of the firearm. It is designed to promote public safety and prevent impulsive acts of violence. Option A is incorrect because there is indeed a waiting period in Hawaii. Options B and D are also incorrect as they do not reflect the specific waiting period required by Hawaii law, which is 14 days.
