Update 3/18: KokoHead Shooting Complex closed thru April 30

 

Read up on the Assault Weapons Ban 2019

Lawmakers are counting on the fact that firearm owners simply won't read

what this House Resolution details and thus would easily be misinformed.

H.R. 1296

"To regulate assault weapons . . . the right to keep and bear arms is not unlimited, and for other purposes."

    

 

Any merchandise not requiring paperwork must be paid for by cash. [Ammunition, accessories, cleaning supplies, holsters and gear, etc]

Visa/MC ok for any firearm purchases requiring permits.

 

Thursday April 2 Tracked overdue boxes, some tags claimed 'delivery attempted' Wed Apr 1 and more showed 'out for delivery' and of course, I never got any boxes; - called FedEx and found out someone arbitrarily listed this shop is closed due to virus!! the rep said they will put note to deliver packages Fri Apr 3.   Friday April 3 I go to FedEx 09:30am and have live person check tracking for 11 boxes. Find 3 more boxes slated for Apr 3 delivery; I head over to Kaneohe shop. 11:30am -  delivery of 14 boxes including claimed 'attempted' Wed Apr 1. Of course, always unknown time for deliveries made from FedEx or UPS.   For those with prepaid advance order items, do not call to ask about them, I will call after sorting items and ready for pickup. More arrives after Apr 6.   Air orders once they are shipped take only 2 or 3 days Freight transit takes 1 week trucked to CA, 9 to 12 days across the Pacific

Tuesday March 31, 2020 Excerpt from one of many emails that I have been typing out for many inquirers; this relays the accurate and horrific situation of current news with gun industry     There are no defense shotguns Mossberg or otherwise at any of the nation's large distributors. this is a repeat outcome of past political incidents yet now much worse because of the medical situations that developed and are still continuing; nationwide frantic purchasing and searching for EVERYTHING guns and ammo and accessories that clearly most firearm owners or those newly interested in guns should have already secured last month, last year, the last three years - has crashed into the most accelerated timeframe that has never been seen in history. March 16 (a Monday) is when I saw dramatic purchasing of distributor inventories, depleting any products available at whirlwind pace. several distributor reps told me this morning "this is only beginning". I agree. you can use my ffl copy to forward to a seller on mainland if you find Mossberg or other ones you like if found at reasonable prices, and remember there would be shipping costs from the shipper. My FFL transfer fees are very reasonable. I will send my FFL in a separate email to you. Daniel Kaneohe Gun Shop

 

 

It is important to secure firearms, parts and ammo:

Always be prepared; the evil and undesirable will continue unseen...

 

Everyone must recognize unstoppable measures are in the future

 

 No gun laws will stop evil doers from conducting their crimes 

 

 Only the good citizens will be affected by firearm restrictions 

 

 Why can't the majority of Americans acknowledge that fact? 

 

Media, celebrities, and now an incredible number of younger citizens -

this is the unimaginable yet real outcome of what I referred to in 2016:

"Everyone must realize that unstoppable measures are in the future..."

Always more misdirected anti-gun sentiment and frenzied social media;

accumulated public outcry resulting from tragic events involving firearms

You or I or any good person - cannot guarantee stopping all evil or evil doers.

No additional restrictions or legislation could protect everyone every second.

 

Hawaii Legislative session has introduced bills of serious concern: HB1303  expanding and inclusions of 'assault weapon' definitions HB1531  restating definitions plus naming specific 'assault' firearms

 

04/12/18  No one would have imagined Vermont having firearm restrictions!

Republican-Vermont-gov-phil-scott-signs-significant-gun-restrictions-into-law

> No purchase within Vermont (or online/out-of-state) of rifle mags over 10 rounds, pistol mags over 15 rounds.

Retailers allowed to sell magazine inventory until October 1, 2018. Individuals allowed to keep mags they own.

> Background checks will be required for nearly all private gun transactions, beginning with governor's signature.

Vermont gun sellers and gun buyers will need to visit a FFL dealer who is willing to conduct background check

and facilitate transfer for a reasonable fee. Immediate family members are exempt from background checks.

> People younger than 21 not allowed to purchase firearms unless hunter safety course completed.

Firearm sellers are expected to uphold law or face $1,000 fine and up to 1 year in prison.

Law enforcement officers, members of military and veterans exempt from age restriction.

> People at "extreme risk" of suicide or violence required to relenquish firearms up to six months.

> Bump stocks must be surrendered by October 1, 2018; no grandfather allowance on bump stocks.

> September 1: expansion of police officer's power to remove firearms from scene of domestic assault arrest.

 

07/09/19  And now, be aware of this development in the state of Virginia

Virginia-becomes-election-battleground-in-fight-over-gun-laws

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Deep-pocketed interest groups and activists on both sides of the long-running fight

over gun laws are gearing up for a major clash in Virginia, now a key election battleground in the issue after

Republicans on Tuesday adjourned a special legislative session called by the governor to consider

gun-control measures after a mass shooting at a municipal building (Virginia Beach May 31, 2019).

 

 

 

there are many ways

Complete AR15 rifles, stripped lower receivers and complete uppers

are in stock - at my everyday low prices - no overpricing or gouging!

 

Always the lowest, reasonable pricing for a genuine brick & mortar storefront Providing ETHICAL, HONEST, NO BULLSHIT recommendations and advice on proven products I use and rely on, not just "another item to sell or markup" I seek to find the best deals on quality proven firearms and products, and will offer the lowest prices possible, rewarding repeat customers

 

Handgun purchases require 'notarized training certificate' and a two week waiting period.

Rifles and shotguns require a longgun permit. No one wants to deal with these procedures

but they are required and must be done along with filling out Federal fm 4473 upon pickup.

For rifles/shotguns: It takes two weeks to get a longgun permit and then it's good for a year.

- Firearm registration procedures with HPD -

I do not offer 'military or law enforcement discounts' because everyday prices are low enough.

I don't have items marked up high then offer a discount to give an impression of lower prices.

Repeat customers receive further discounts. Active NRA/LIFE instructors receive discounts.

That is how I believe it should be, and those who understand the concept will agree.

Factors considered on prioritizing: Demographics and local practicality   Priorities of shop inventory: AR15 rifles, lowers, parts to build/repair ARs, Glock handguns, spare parts, 9mm - 5.56mm - 22lr ammunition, mags, few other popular calibers & mags, few Surefire lights, reputable quality designed folding or fixed blade knives Much of the decision is sensible; what will most people not only need now, but also consider what will be sought after and be readily saleable/tradable! - Firearms & Equipment Recommendations -   Not a priority for shop inventory: .308 or larger calibers & firearms chambered for them, majority of revolvers, most bolt/lever actions unless in .22lr, firearms circulating less than 10 years, reloading items, binoculars, rangfinders, lasers, excess inventory of holsters.

The final symbol of freedom in America is the right to own firearms.

I sell products ethically. I don't merchandise unnecessary items or steer customers wrong

by sales pitching firearms and related accessories the way most shops do nationwide.

Firearms are serious. For defense, hunting, even shooting as a hobby: when you've had

enough of the BS in the firearm industry, you'll get honest answers and experience here.

- Why I have a different approach to firearms and equipment sales -

POSTED:   Fair Warning Sorry, no service given to anyone who:   - Argues/whines about firearms permit requirements (there's no instant fix for improving HI laws so don't try to teach me about how it is better in  other states) - You think I like the restrictions we have here in Hawaii? No dealer can complete firearm transfers unless person clears requirements! If we aren't involved with the good fight and political effort, we cannot complain.   - Proclaims that I don't seem to appreciate military service personel because further discounts aren't offered on prices already as low as possible yet somehow keep doors open as a gunshop in Hawaii.   - Insinuates they know more about firearms, training or tactics more than    others who haven't (as far as they think) served in a LE or MIL capacity. (and often end up revealing they recognize only one side of numerous tactical situations)   - Projects an attitude of deserved entitlement because they are better than others - or worse, brags about how much better they are since they conceal carry in other states. If one is so superior, be humble and find out what it takes to bring others up to speed.   Amazing isn't it? There are those who go around presenting the above headaches and I will not tolerate it - neither should the next good citizen in Hawaii or elsewhere

 

3% fee for any card payments made by phone. No AmEx or Discover. * 3~4% discount on cash purchases of firearms! * ( *all firearms new unless indicated* )

 

Guns purchased / unclaimed / not arranged for shipment to FFLs in other states after

60 days will be subject to sale or disposition. These guns are subject to storage fees.

Handguns $1/day, Longguns $2/day. Storage fees will apply to any claim for firearms.

Firearms left over 120 days are forfeit, will be sold, and cannot be claimed by anyone.

 

NOTICE REGARDING ALL FIREARM PURCHASES No refunds on any firearms once serial numbers are issued to purchaser.

Specializing in defensive firearms and training, Kaneohe Gun Shop is your source for products that are proven and hold true to the adage “you get what you pay for”.  Quality only needs to be bought once, and the knowledge one acquires through the sale is perhaps the most valuable of all. Firearms for hunting and target shooting are likewise offered based on personal experience and reputable gun manufacturers' history or track record. Selling bargain guns or accessories just to make another markup in the store is not in my interest. Helping people arrive at higher ability in firearm and fighting skills in rapid time frames is my goal and that path does not allow wasted time/money with unnecessary/ inferior products or tedious learning processes.

Kaneohe Gun Shop is located at 45-1117 Kamehameha Hwy Link: pictures of building on Kam Hwy

This is why I talk up training beyond the typical gun range and why I pursue aggresive physical training 4 to 5 nights a week. - Combatives - It is also why I recommend knife, empty hand and 'improvised tools' reality training even more than live fire practice at a peaceful firing range. Progressive annual training is also my personal requirement, and that takes a budgeting of time and money that does not need to be spent on the next miracle gadget or promised wonder gun. Rehearsals and drills should be recurrent and frequent, not excessive range visits to send rounds often wastefully downrange. It does not need to take years for responsible gun owners to cultivate mindset and formidable ability to thwart malice and evil that may present itself to loved ones and innocent around us. -Force on Force-
