Welcome to Texas, Kansans with CCW's

January 30, 2007 Kansas
Effective immediately, Governor Perry has issued a proclamation that allows persons with valid concealed handgun licenses from Kansas to carry in Texas. All Kansas license holders will be required to follow Texas law while carrying concealed in this state including age restrictions and type of weapon permitted. The Kansas Attorney General's office has determined that the Texas Concealed Handgun License Standards meet "the equal to or greater standard" for recognition. Therefore, Texas residents with valid Texas Concealed Handgun Licenses may carry concealed while traveling in Kansas and will be required to follow Kansas law while carrying concealed in that state.

Live in Kansas. I've always envied Texas gun laws, the right to protect person and property. I think there is somewhat an understanding with a lot of states that if you carry legal in your state, others MAY recognize your CCW for example when traveling.

Good day
PS Go K-STATE!

Good news to read for us folks here in the sorta "free" state.The new Atty General's office has issued out new training booklets to us instructors and,so far,no big changes other some clarifications and wording .They did include the recognized states list that was posted here a while back.
