Does Kansas allow for reciprocity with other states that issue CCH licenses?
SB 418 specifies that the Kansas Attorney General is to review the laws of other states and make a determination on whether to grant reciprocity to CCH licenses issued by other states. The training requirement of other states must be at least as stringent as Kansas to be considered. QUESTION: If I have a CCH license issued by another state and Kansas does grant reciprocity to that states licenses, when can I begin carrying a concealed handgun in Kansas based on that out-of-state license? Answer: No license issued by another state will be recognized in Kansas until January 1, 2007. On and after January 1, 2007, the Attorney General will publish a list of states whose CCH licenses will be recognized in Kansas, however, if a person is a Kansas resident, he/she must have a Kansas issued CCH license in order to carry a concealed handgun in the State of Kansas. (Kansas residents will not be legal to carry concealed based on a license issued by another state.
