SB301
Hearing Feb 12 9:15am SB301 Assault weapons and magazine ban
... their definition of 'assault rifle' and 'assault shotgun' has been EXPANDED to include
'ANY SEMIAUTO RIFLE OR SHOTGUN (regardless of caliber) that accepts a detachable magazine or has a revolving cylinder' and has ONE or more of following characteristics:
[some alarming points to take note of in their existing list of common characteristics]
(3) A thumbhole stock (in addition to the folding or telescoping stock already listed)
(4) A second handgrip or protruding grip that can be held by the non-trigger hand
(9) A threaded barrel [nearly everything in our fun and/or defense gun lineup has a
threaded barrel - YES, even your .22 rimfire rifles are affected - and even if you
don't have a threaded barrel now, you wouldn't be able to install a threaded later)
Section 3 (f) After July 8, 2021 no person shall bring or cause to be brought into the State an assault rifle or assault shotgun.
No assault rifle or assault shotgun can be transferred on or after July 8, 2021.

Expect many firearm restrictions and legislation
to be passed this year 2021 by Biden and Harris
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.
|
Be aware: these directives are on Biden's website
-BidenPlansOnFirearms-
[some listed below] These will change America's freedoms for
personal firearm ownership and your ability for self-defense!!
Ban manufacture and sale of assault weapons and high-capacity magazines.
and as always, the criminals will prevail as they never abide gun laws
Buy back assault weapons and high-capacity magazines in our communities.
how would individuals recoup their true costs for such items?
End the online sale of firearms and ammunitions.
[prohibit all online sales of firearms, ammunition, kits, and gun parts]
Restrictions on non-serialized parts kits, spare parts for repair/replacement?
Reduce stockpiling of weapons.
[Restrict the number of firearms an individual may purchase per month to one]
Wait now - a lawful citizen would be limited to how many firearms they
can acquire for sport, hunting, defense, collecting, investment?

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.

GOOGLE IS WRONG. There have been constant annoying
solicitations from Google reps with heavy accents for over
4-5 years. They bother me each time, insisting my website
will not be seen by general public unless I spend something
or sign onto some service etc etc. (could be setup, fake, ?)
They bother me with sales calls and still can't post correct hours! Ever since Covid March 2020, I changed my shop
hours to 12-5pm [instead of previous 11am-5pm] and then I
opened on most Sundays [versus being closed to teach Sundays]
For those who want to argue - why would you trust generic
info by Google online? Smart logic is check store website!
Yes - I've had people tell me off, saying "Google says you should be open at 11"
SO YOU'D TRUST INTERNET INFO AND NOT CHECK THE SHOP WEBSITE?
Tue, Wed 12-5pm

No commonly requested ammo is orderable like before
no .22 rimfire, .223/5.56, 7.62x39, .308
no 9mm, .40cal, .45acp, .38spec, .357
Any ammo that arrives for sale must be paid by cash,
will be sold higher than retail, and have quantity limits
No positive estimate when more will be available.
It has been dismal since July 2020, and now with
resulting election shenanigans; it doesn't matter
who gets into office. The fallout either way affects
everyone and all commerce, perhaps all thru 2021
due to Covid & shameful actions of fellow citizens.
|
FFL transfer fees and shipping costs: CASH
Any merchandise purchases under $20: CASH
And since two individuals ran charge card disputes to my shop in
just 8 months of Covid, any ammunition purchase must be cash
CONCERNING INBOUND PRESIDENCY AND CONTINUED CORONAVIRUS:
items harder to find, takes longer to ship out from distributor warehouses
demand of merchandise needed is higher than supply, select new inventory
cannot be found at distributors; thus pricing of current inventory must rise
Virtually all commonly requested/desparately needed inventory
from big distributors is still ZERO! [ guns - ammo - accessories ]
Big distributors with multiple locations nationwide still have
2 - 3 day covid issue delays in packing and shipping orders.
All across America there are thousands of new gun owners
depleting normal national inventories, bringing about gouging,
and produces more uncertain, inexperienced firearm owners.
Absolutely pray that individuals be smart, careful and thinking
of those around them and beyond what is seen at the moment.
Irresponsible individuals will bring blame upon all gun owners.
Since there is very limited supply of obvious necessities, crucial ammunition and guns have been at higher prices
nationwide; clear result of demand outpacing any supply.
-Enlightening: Gun industry vows not to get burned again-
|
VIRTUALLY EVERY GUN POPULARLY SOUGHT AFTER OR REQUESTED
IS NON-EXISTENT AT NATIONAL DISTRIBUTORS. THIS NON-SUPPLY
SITUATION INCLUDES IMPORTANT AMMUNITION AND ACCESSORIES
Since July 2020, all that can be found at most nationwide
distributors are the high echelon / top tier / specialty guns.
Since industry distributors don't have their usual inventories
of firearms and accessories, most consumers search online
sellers on gunbroker or similar to acquire their desired items-
unavoidably at much higher pricing than usual at local shops.
Buy locally when you can; ensure your local firearm sources!
February 1 2021
How anyone (even if they became gun owners at the end of 2020)
claims they didn't know guns & ammo have been unavailable for
the past 6 - 8 months has got to be clueless or truly ignorant.
On Monday March 16 of 2020, news of Covid hit worldwide.
Senseless calamity and infighting among fellow Americans
within the continental US itself has caused unprecedented
demand for everything firearms. By May 2020 it was clear:
popular guns & ammo have all been sold out at suppliers.
For those who call or come by asking about ammo availability
thank you for checking - but don't tell me or other gunshops
you don't see how there is no ammo. Now commonly desired
guns, parts, and especially ammunition is at a continuing rise
in value and selling price. It can be seen on Gunbroker.com.
FEBRUARY 2021
REFERENCE GUNBROKER TO BE UP TO DATE ON CURRENT PRICING
I cannot believe how high the prices of guns and parts have risen to
across the nation - check Gunbroker.com and search the spectrum of popular semiauto handgun and rifle manufacturer or model keywords
and even as a 30+ years firearms dealer, I never thought the outcome
of coronavirus and nationwide entitlement / shameful actions / racism would create millions of new firearm owners & high levels of gouging.
Everyone must recognize however, shops cannot reorder any item normally
as in peace time; like before CoronaVirus / when politics were of no concern
Since July 2020, resurgence of national inventory purchasing has
depleted all popular guns, ammo, parts - cleaning out distributors!
If you wanted to get this or that; firearm or not, you need to act now.
Pay for goods, get guns secured, complete prerequisites, do it now!
|

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!
|
Get ready: Politics involving firearms (limitations & restrictions)
are heating up! All those who kept waiting and procrastinating
on purchasing mag-fed semiauto military rifles over the past 3
years had better secure some and get AR-15 lower receivers
before unexpected/unstoppable issues put more laws in effect!
|
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 -
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* ) |
FFL transfer fees and shipping costs: CASH
Any merchandise purchases under $20: CASH
And since two individuals ran charge card disputes to my shop in
just 8 months of Covid, any ammunition purchase must be cash
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.
TAKE NOTE - From Feb 2021: Regardless of Covid situation -
because of constant delays for applications in permit process
& unavoidable HPD appointment scheduling difficulties,
firearms planned for local pickup will have storage fees.
Majority of these are out-of-state inbound firearms that cannot be stored rent-free
for months with mere FFL transfer fees in this troubled/unknown time in our nation.
If you do not have prerequisites satisfied for handgun permit process,
no reserves of inventory or out-of-state incoming handgun transfers will be done.
If you do not have valid current longgun permit [or at least in-process]
no reserves of inventory or out-of-state incoming longgun transfers will be done.
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.

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?
