Kansas is moving towards constitutional carry (no permit required), it just takes time. We have an outstanding person working towards that, she's the President of KSRA. She's been the primary reason our gun & knife laws have been evolving, got open-carry approved and over-rode the cities ordinances prohibiting it AND got it to where the chief LEO has to sign Form 4 for NFA Items (SBR & suppressors). It's great to live in Kansas if you are a gun owner.
