If you go to California, they probably won't even let you look at it over the counter....  |
He's in Hawaii so he is pretty much screwed on the border state thing. __________________

Haha, yea the internet is full of facts. Well, specifically, I went to the NRA-ILA site. It's says that "There are no state licensing requirements for the purchase of rifles or shotguns." for Seattle, but I guess that only means their state... So there'd be no way to get a shotgun then?... That suxxxx....  |
Are there gunshops near you in Hawaii? You can order a shotgun online and have it shipped to a licensed gun dealer (FFL) in your state as long as it is a legal firearm.

Well the thing is, Hawaii doesn't allow guns to be owned by people under the age of 21 (I'm only 20; turned this monday :P). I've only been allowed to shoot my uncle's guns at the shooting range, which I can't take across borders (unless he comes with me). This is why I am looking for a shotgun to buy for myself on the mainland (since I'm going to be there for a while anyway). Hmm.... Is it illegal to have a resident in the state to buy the gun, then give it to me? | |

Just like the man said-it's a "straw purchase" and highly illegal. __________________

Ah... All right, well I guess I'll have to settle with taking turns shooting my friend's shotgun (He told me that's not illegal). Thanks for the heads up and tips. | |
