Can a person legally sell a firearm to another individual without conducting a background check in Kansas?

  1. Yes, if both are Kansas residents

  2. No, a background check is always required

  3. Yes, but only for rifles and shotguns

  4. No, unless it's a private sale

The correct answer is: Yes, if both are Kansas residents

In Kansas, it is legal for a person to sell a firearm to another individual without conducting a background check if both parties are Kansas residents. This is outlined in the state's firearm laws and is often referred to as the "face-to-face" loophole. The other options, while they may be true in other states or situations, are not specifically applicable to Kansas law. For example, option B may be true in states that have stricter gun laws, and option C may only apply to specific types of firearms. Option D may be true in other states that do not have a "face-to-face" loophole but in Kansas, it is legal as long as both parties are residents.
