Can individuals convicted of a felony own a firearm in Kansas after a certain period?

  1. Yes, after 5 years

  2. Yes, after 10 years

  3. No, they are permanently banned

  4. Yes, but only through a gubernatorial pardon

The correct answer is: Yes, after 10 years

While individuals convicted of a felony are prohibited from owning a firearm in Kansas, there is a process for restoration of gun rights after a certain period. Option A states that it is possible after 5 years, however, this is incorrect as the required period is longer. Option C is incorrect as individuals are not permanently banned from owning a firearm, but rather have to go through a specific process for restoration of gun rights. Option D is also incorrect as a gubernatorial pardon is not the only way for individuals convicted of a felony to regain their gun rights, but rather an option for those who cannot meet the requirements for restoration. Therefore, option B is the correct answer as it accurately reflects the minimum amount of time that must pass before an individual can apply for restoration of gun rights in Kansas.
