NO – Must Inform Officer on Contact By Law
There is nothing in Kansas gun laws that states you must inform a law enforcement officer you have a firearm when approached on official business. Guns To Carry always recommends that you carry your permit, together with photo ID, at all times during which the permittee is in actual possession of a concealed handgun.
NO
“No Weapons” signs are not mentioned in Kansas gun laws. There are no legal penalties for entering a private property or business that has posted these signs. They have no force of law unless they are posted in areas that are mentioned in the law as being off limits.
GunsToCarry recommends that you do not enter a property displaying a “No Weapons” sign whether the law is for or against signage. If asked to leave a property and you refuse to do so then you are breaking the law and put yourself at risk of being charged.
