Hey all,
My name is Chris and I'm coming to you live from the anti-gun / anti-CCW state of Hawaii, more specifically the island of Oahu. I am a soon to be XD owner. Thanks to the lovely legislation here I am half way through the 14 day waiting period before i can pick up my new baby, she's paid for just gotta wait till next week!!!! Anyway my addition to the family is an XD40 Tactical. Been shooting since i can remember and hope to get into the IPSC shooting here soon. Any other islanders on here? Thx, Chris |

Hey Chris, welcome to the forum and congratulations on your purchase. Sounds as if Hawaii is very similiar to Illinois in their attitude towards handguns. Is Honolulu very restrictive on firearms? Chicago is one of if not the worst in the nation. Only benefit here is our 3 day waiting period not 14. I hope our politicians are not reading this!

Hello and welcome from the gun friendly state of Indiana. I feel bad for you guys from the anti-gun states. Seems to me that if you're gonna buy a gun to commit a crime chances are you won't go through legal channels anyway, so the waiting periods (IMHO) don't really do anything.

Welcome to the forum from UT, one of the more gun friendly state. We allow CCW in public schools and college campus! The only problem is it just takes about 90 days to get a CCW permit.
