Figured other islanders might appreciate this ...

Bottom line: Legal immigrant from Australia can't be barred from applying for a permit to own a firearm in Hawai`i.
Now, if they'd only do away with the whole permit/registration thing and the stupid magazine capacity limits ...
Fantastic. More people have SEEN the LIGHT! (in my best preacher voice)
Yeah Hawai'i sucks for owning firearms. We'll see what this leads to though.
I willingly spent $2500 during the bad for a Colt Sporter Match HBAR that had been butchered into a carbine with a Bushmaster barrel. While living on Oahu. The store is named Magnum Firearms now but I can not remember if that was the name back then....
I still have that rifle because I refuse to get rid of something I spent that much money on out of spite. But I have restored it to a 20 inch HBAR A2 configuration.

Hawaii sucks donkey balls when it comes to gun laws. This is a step in the right direction but it still sucks balls!!

On a related note, I just drove all the way around the island of Maui today. I think every road sign I saw had some sort of bullet holes in it.
Makes me think maybe having a few more shooting ranges might make it a safer place.
As for me, equal rights is the best practice in such a case.
Good news
