Kansas Eligible to Apply for Concealed Carry Though no concealed carry permits will be issued in Kansas until January 1, 2007, applications for the permits, authorized by a law recently passed in the Sunflower State, legally could be filed as of July 1. The Wichita Eagle quotes Sedgwick County sheriff Gary Steed as estimating that 25,000 permits will be filed statewide. Information on the law, as well as application forms, is posted on the attorney general’s Web site. Don Holman, owner of the Bullet Stop, anticipates in a spike in sales, similar to the 30 percent rise he saw when the legislature passed the law by overriding Gov. Kathleen Sebelius’s veto.
