Is a permit required to carry a concealed handgun in Kansas?

Yes, always
No
Only in certain cities
Only for non-residents

The correct answer is: No

In Kansas, a permit is not required to carry a concealed handgun. This is due to the state adopting Constitutional Carry laws, which allow individuals who are at least 21 years old and legally eligible to possess a firearm to carry a concealed handgun without a permit. This means that residents of Kansas can exercise their right to carry a concealed weapon without undergoing the process of obtaining a permit, as long as they meet the necessary eligibility criteria. It is important to note that while a permit is not required for most residents, an enhanced concealed carry license is available for those who choose to obtain one. This enhanced license offers benefits such as carrying in additional states that have reciprocity agreements with Kansas and may provide other advantages depending on local regulations.
