Introduced Text

Kansas SB503 removes criminal prohibitions against firearm suppressors and firearm barrel length requirements.

Kansas SB503 amends state law by removing criminal prohibitions against the use of firearm suppressors and the requirement for firearm barrel length qualifications. The bill repeals existing sections of K.S.A. 21-6301 and 21-6302, which previously criminalized the use of certain firearms and attachments. This change allows individuals to possess and use firearm suppressors and firearms with barrels shorter than previously specified without facing criminal penalties. The bill takes effect upon publication in the statute book.
