July 12 2021 website homepage has corrupted coding store schedule below is the important info correct content of homepage is from this box down to dotted line till blank section of page |
Serious issue that has been increasing over the past 6 years:
There have been some individuals (most were in the military)
claim chargeback disputes on card transactions months after
they had guns sent over or shipped out, then left the islands -
and in each incident (averaging $50 ~ $100) it already is taken
out of my business account. How can gunshops prevent such
malicious acts? This has happened on non-gun items as well!
And this is in the sanctity in the world of firearms?
What kind of a gun owner disputes a gunshop's operational
costs when charges provided a service on their gun(s)?
THIS IS WHY CURRENT POLICY IS CASH ONLY FOR:
AMMUNITION , TRANSFER FEES , SHIPPING COSTS
Our nation and the world is swept up in the newest spin of events - because of most unexpected issue of virus.
And now, the sensible reminder locally and nationwide: AVOID , AVOID , AVOID No need to go to questionable areas in concerning times. Avoid instigators and troublemakers.
More than ever, those armed in the USA must be smart: THINK FIRST. GUNS LAST. Don't be rash or act hastily!
Understand that you are responsible for your own actions! READ AND HEED All purchases and verbal discussions at Kaneohe Gun Shop imply personal responsibility of the customer.

DO NOT COME HERE 'JUST TO LOOK' or 'TO WASTE SOME TIME' or to get information on how to aquire a firearm. Go to HPD link below.
Come on by when you are ready to purchase, have specific item(s) in mind, or to see examples of featured items shown on main inventory page or specials page.

Mon-Fri 12-5pm Sat Oct 23 11am-4pm Sun Oct 24 Closed
VICTORY AND GOOD NEWS as of Sep 30th 2021: Immense gratitude to incredible work efforts by HiFiCo and key individuals; Hawaii's in-person registration requirement in HRS 134-3 has been found unconstitutional in Federal District Court. The win in the lawsuit Yukutake vs Conners removes requirement to bring firearms to HPD for inspection. We received confirmation from Corporation Counsel regarding Judge Seabright’s decisions. We will not be mandating registrants to come in-person, either to register a firearm or bring the firearm in, and they do not have to bring the firearm in to be registered if they do come in-person. What we are providing is an Option. In-person registration is an option, and they can bring in their firearm if they want, but doing so does not affect their registration at all, what we need is the necessary information to conduct the transfer, we are implementing procedures to provide registrants options that can help their registration process. We are also constructing an online registration system for both rifles and handguns. You can come in-person now, or wait until we have our online system implemented, but that is being constructed with an unknown estimated time of completion but is being diligently worked on. We will notify the public when this system is initiated. We are formulating an “Instruction Guide” to provide to buyers/registrants and sellers on the laws and options of obtaining the proper information in order to register their firearm. We will update our website to reflect our protocols, options, and intended resolutions. We will use our website, social media, and media liaison to assist in enlightening the public on the laws regarding firearms prohibitions and the Permit to Acquire and Registration requirements and protocols...

Firearms Registration Updates Oct 15, 2021 Today the Hawaii Attorney General has petitioned the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals to take up our district court win Yukutake vs Conners which removed the 10 day permit expiration dates on handgun permits and removed the requirement for in-person firearm registrations at the police department. We hope the appeals court does not take this case nor put a stay on the removal of the in-person registration requirement. We had a very good win in the district court which means the State may have a difficult time in the appeals court. Wait and see. This is the current state of firearms registration processes in Hawaii: Honolulu County: No requirement to register firearms until HPD creates an online registration system or other remote alternative. Kauai County: In-person firearms registration is still mandatory, but you do not need to bring the firearm with you. Maui County: Instructions for remote email, fax, and mail registrations are on the MPD firearms webpage. First time registrations since 2016 will still be required to do a one time fingerprints and photos at the station. Hawaii County: Call your district police station to do a firearms registration over the phone. I’m not sure what the process will be for first time registrants.

National Shooting Sports Foundation estimated 20 million guns sold in 2020. 8 million were first-time buyers. Spokesperson stated "if 8.4 million gun buyers all bought only one box of 50 rounds, that equals 420 million rounds.
Strong recommendation for many years before 2020 coronavirus:
Maintain a minimum of 6 mags & 1,000 rds per semiauto firearm
Secure ammunition and set aside spare parts. Don't want to be affected by ammo shortage again - you know it's gonna happen

Want to protect yourself, family and loved ones? Interested in shooting sports or collecting firearms; preserving and building up on valuable investments that you, friends or family already own? Get active in firearms, prioritize and secure guns & parts now before divisive politics and social media influence more of the United States which will drive anti-gun sentiment into votes; irreversible restrictive laws. Learn facts, start permit process and get moving! There will be election developments before you know it; costs will rise & time spent on procedures will increase! |

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. |

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. - Kickboxing - 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 often sending rounds 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- |
If you are concerned about personal protection, safeguarding your family and being prepared, why would you take ANY advice from
those who do not continuously train and progress in that manner?
[IF YOU HAVE NOTARIZED CERTIFICATE FROM ME prior to July 2021] July 2021: For those who have completed Handgun Course certificates from my classes; there is a required update needed on the certificate. Must re-issue them with update; email me at: kaneohegs@yahoo.com

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.
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 -

There still is no normal supply available from distributors so
shops will not have abundant supply of ammo or firearms.
DO NOT EXPECT NUMEROUS TYPES OF GUNS & AMMO TO
BE AVAILABLE, especially at my renown discounted prices.
MARCH 16, 2021: 1 YEAR OF COVID ISSUES AND CONTINUING.
Once supply starts to improve thru firearm distributors and
if HPD does away with mandatory appointment scheduling,
then I can build up inventory of more guns, especially pistols.
MAY 10, 2021: HPD walk-in registration starts, but still required
to make an appointment online for initial permits to acquire.
And to reiterate a serious issue that has been increasing over
the past 6 years: I've had people (most of them in the military)
claim chargeback disputes on card transactions months after
they had guns sent over or shipped out, then left the islands -
and in each incident (averaging $50 ~ $100) it already is taken
out of my business account. How can gunshops prevent such
malicious acts? This has happened on non-gun items as well!
And this is in the sanctity in the world of firearms?
What kind of a gun owner disputes a gunshop's operational
costs when charges provided a service on their gun(s)?
THIS IS WHY CURRENT POLICY IS CASH ONLY FOR:
AMMUNITION , TRANSFER FEES , SHIPPING COSTS
Expect many firearm restrictions and legislation
to be passed this year 2021 by Biden and Harris
