By the way, for any other Kansas residents who might be reading this: If you get your CCH (conceal carry handgun) permit, you won't have to wait for the NCIS check. You'll still need to have the firearm shipped to the FFL, and you'll still have to fill out the paperwork, but you won't have to wait to have it called in to make sure you're OK. It's because Kansas does a very thorough background check during the 90-180 days that are required for applying for a CCH.

I mention this for you folks in other states that allow conceal carry. It doesn't usually take long at all (average for me was 5 minutes, but it on my most recent gun purchase, it took a few days during the recent firearm legislation scare when NCIS was swamped with requests). Just another option to check in on. Even if you never carry a concealed weapon or even plan to, it might be something to look into and consider.

Having a concealed carry permit (CCP) greatly simplifies the headache of dealing with FFL transfers. I Highly recommend that anyone interested in owning a firearm consider applying for one within their respective state.
