HI HCR92

Requests the Honolulu Police Department to streamline the gun ownership and permitting process for law-abiding citizens in the City and County of Honolulu.

Identifies current handgun permit requirements as time-consuming, requiring applicants to complete federal firearms forms, obtain serial numbers, apply at a police station, and wait 14 days.

Notes that long gun permits allow unlimited purchases during the permit period, while handgun ownership requires significantly more steps.

Suggests alternative methods such as pre-filling permit applications before visiting a police station or permitting office to reduce delays.

Directs transmission of a certified copy of the resolution to the Chief of Police of the Honolulu Police Department.
