Who is required to undergo a background check before purchasing a firearm in Hawaii?

  1. Only non-residents

  2. Only residents

  3. Everyone, including both residents and non-residents

The correct answer is: Everyone, including both residents and non-residents

In Hawaii, everyone, including both residents and non-residents, is required to undergo a background check before purchasing a firearm. This law applies to all individuals seeking to buy a gun in the state, regardless of their residency status or occupation. Background checks are essential to ensure that firearms do not end up in the hands of individuals who may pose a risk to public safety.
