AN ACT concerning federal and state laws; relating to firearms; removing the criminal prohibition against firearm suppressors and firearm barrel length qualification requirements; amending K.S.A. 21-6301 and 21- 6302 and repealing the existing sections.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing Kansas law to remove the criminal prohibition against possessing firearm suppressors, which are devices designed to reduce the noise of a firearm, and also removes restrictions related to the barrel length of certain firearms, specifically shotguns and other firearms capable of automatic firing. The bill revises two sections of Kansas statutes, K.S.A. 21-6301 and K.S.A. 21-6302, which define criminal use and carrying of weapons, by deleting references to these prohibited items and then repeals the original versions of these sections, effectively making these changes law.
