The_Bad_One, no matter how strict a gun control law is in any jurisdiction in the US outside of Hawaii, it can't stop guns coming in from outside and you can blame the NRA and its supporters for that by making guns so easily available everywhere. Hawaii is safe in that it is 2500 miles from the nearest land so it should be easy to restrict and stop the flow of guns into the state. Once guns are banned from Hawaii, even criminals can't get their hands on them. Only the armed forces are permitted in the execution of their duties.
