The fundamental belief of all firearms sales at Kaneohe Gun Shop is to be purpose-driven and practical. Collectible military firearms are also among the firearms of interest. Many accessories and supplemental items are stocked, yet what really matters and therefore is promoted most, should be the right equipment for the hobby,

tool for the job, or mindset for the mission.

At Kaneohe Gun Shop, we can assist you in selection of the most appropriate merchandise

for your needs, experience or level of firearms proficiency. Additionally, thorough introductory courses are offered in firearm familiarization and usage as well as the required handgun course for handgun purchases in the state of Hawaii.

Owner Daniel has been in the firearms industry for 18 years and a professional firearms instructor for 12.

Recommended firearms, knives and gear are chosen

for their track record, reliability and performance.

The majority of product lines promoted are based on real world usage and experience, not just what is the newest item introduced to the market, written up in some gun publication, or spoken highly of online.

The majority of firearms sought after and purchased

in the United States are considered to be tools for

self defense or personal protection. All too often, how one goes about finalizing their selection ranges from

an absolutely blind purchase (merely based on the persuasive words from a salesperson) to an overly researched decision (such as reading the multitude of

one-sided, inexperienced gun forum opinions online).

How will you arrive at your decisions? Items that I recommend and why often differ from other stores nationwide or internet forums yet it will make sense.

Hawaii Rifle Association / LIFE Fun Shoot

Windward Sunrise Rotary Club - Defeat Polio Event

Polio is a crippling disease that has almost been eliminated across the globe. Efforts by organizations such as the World Health Organization and Rotary International have made huge advancements toward a worldwide goal

of eradicating Polio, which remains endemic in only four countries: India, Pakistan, Nigeria and Afganistan.

On March 29, a 'Rotary Targets Polio' event filled the LIFE range with targets, firearms, instructors and public

who enjoyed shooting while donating for a worthwhile and important cause. Thank you to all who attended!!

Everyone experiencing the event could shoot different firearms and young ones could try their skill with airguns.

Many attendees had their first exposure to firearms on this sunny and beautiful Sunday at Koko Head Range.

Once again, thank you to those who attended, volunteer instructors and safety officials, Windward Rotary Club,

Kaneohe Gun Shop and Young Guns, Hawaii Rifle Association and Lessons In Firearms Education;  Mahalo!

Shooting Sports Fair

Held every summer, the Hawaii Rifle Association Shooting Sports Fair draws large crowds and invites

the public to try numerous firearms with the assistance of volunteer instructors, clubs and gunshops.

The following pictures share just a glimpse of one venue and shooting category on the LIFE range..

Brass flies from an M1A Scout in .308 (shorter 18" barrel version of a standard 22" barreled M1A).

AR-15s and a large variety of foreign military rifles were available.  Beretta's Storm in 9mm was a gas to shoot.

Two extremely popular favorites were AK-47s and the seldom seen Israeli Galil rifle in ARM bipod version.

Equally popular was the blasting of bowling pins and devasting the wood 4x4 targets.

Several variations of the 1919 was out for the Shooting Sports Fair; here are four seen on the LIFE firing line.

Nothing quite like some Browning Model 1919 fun; semi-automatic belt fed style.
