What is the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun in Kansas without adult supervision?

18 years old
21 years old
16 years old
25 years old

The correct answer is: 21 years old

In Kansas, the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun without adult supervision is 18 years old. This aligns with federal laws regarding firearm possession, which generally set that age for handguns. Those under this age are typically required to have adult supervision or be engaged in specific activities, such as hunting or shooting sports, to legally handle a firearm. This understanding reflects the state's approach to balancing the rights to bear arms with considerations for safety and responsible ownership, hence making 18 the correct answer. The other age options provided do not align with either state or federal laws regarding handgun possession.
