Who is eligible to apply for a concealed carry license in Kansas?

Any resident over the age of 21
Non-residents with a valid permit from another state
Only military personnel stationed in Kansas
Residents with no prior criminal record and over the age of 18

The correct answer is: Any resident over the age of 21

The correct answer is that any resident over the age of 21 can apply for a concealed carry license in Kansas. This reflects the state's requirement that applicants must meet the age criteria of being at least 21 years old to ensure that individuals are mature enough to responsibly handle and carry a concealed firearm. The choice accurately aligns with the legal framework surrounding gun ownership and the issuance of concealed carry licenses in Kansas. The other options suggest different eligibility criteria that do not fully align with state laws. Non-residents can apply for a permit under certain conditions, but they must meet specific requirements, including having a valid permit from their home state, rather than being outright eligible regardless of those conditions. The mention of only military personnel also narrows the scope incorrectly, as residents outside of the military can apply as well. Finally, while having no prior criminal record is important for eligibility, the minimum age remains 21, making that answer insufficient.
