Hawaii Revised Statutes Chapter 134 establishes statewide firearms regulations, but unlike many states, Hawaii does not broadly preempt counties from enacting local firearms ordinances on certain matters.
HRS Chapter 134 governs firearms, ammunition, and dangerous weapons throughout Hawaii. The statute requires permits to acquire firearms, registration of all firearms, and contains restrictions on assault pistols and large-capacity magazines. Hawaii is unusual among states because it does not have a sweeping preemption clause forbidding all county firearms regulation. The four counties (Honolulu, Hawaii, Maui, Kauai) administer the permit and registration system through their police departments under HRS 134-2 and 134-3. Counties may adopt rules consistent with state law regarding the application process, locations of permitted use, and local park or facility restrictions. State law still controls the substantive permit standards.
Possessing an unregistered firearm or carrying without a license is a misdemeanor or felony depending on circumstances under HRS 134-17.
