I live in the state of Kansas and have been recently looking up regulations and laws regarding firearms and have noticed that our state has more liberal firearm laws than many states. I think of Kansas as a very conservative state (and we as a state usually vote that way). Does anyone know why then we have so many regulations on weapons. Such as No conceal carry (one of only 14 states without), complete outlaw of silecers, and many other class3 items, and a very short and getting shorter every year, firearms deer season. Our Governor is in charge of our wildlife and parks department and she is a Democrat, but these laws and trends are far from new. Someone please explain to me why my farm, prairy, and ranching state seems to be far behind many other more liberal states when it comes to right to bear arms laws.
