What entity is responsible for firearm registration in Hawaii?

  1. Federal Bureau of Investigation

  2. Hawaii State Police Department

  3. Local police department

  4. Hawaii Department of Public Safety

The correct answer is: Local police department

The correct answer is the local police department. In Hawaii, the local police department is responsible for firearm registration. They maintain records of all firearms registered within their jurisdiction, ensuring that all legal requirements are met by firearm owners in Hawaii. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) does not handle firearm registration in the state, and while the Hawaii State Police Department plays a role in firearm regulation, registration is specifically managed by the local police department. The Hawaii Department of Public Safety oversees various aspects of public safety in the state but does not directly handle firearm registration.
