What is the minimum age to openly carry a firearm in Kansas?

  1. 18 years old

  2. 19 years old

  3. 21 years old

  4. 25 years old

The correct answer is: 21 years old

The minimum age to openly carry a firearm in Kansas is 18 years old. Kansas law allows individuals who are 18 years of age or older to open carry a firearm without a permit. This aligns with the state's strong emphasis on Second Amendment rights and provides individuals who are legally permitted to possess a firearm the ability to carry it openly in public. The age of 21 is more commonly associated with purchasing a handgun from a federally licensed dealer, but it is not the requirement for openly carrying a firearm in the state. Understanding the specific age requirements for different aspects of firearm ownership and usage is crucial for compliance with Kansas laws.
