If possible please sticky to the top.
Here is some of the homework. If someone can make a display better than this feel free to use this information.
This information is for those without a permit.
Some things may change with the acquisition of a permit; I am not going to address those issues in this thread.
Out-of-State persons may find this page especially helpful.
This list is cities that to the best of my knowledge through studying the city codes DO allow open carry. I am not a lawyer and some restrictions MAY apply:
Dodge City
Concordia
Leavenworth
Winfield
Garden City
El Dorado
Arkansas City
Andover
Ottawa
Manhattan
Shawnee
Mission (Title 2, Ch. 215, Article 7)
Merriam
Olathe
Derby
Emporia
Hutchinson
Lawrence*
DOES NOTdoes not allow open carry)
Overland Park
Lenexa
Praire Village
Leawood
Topeka
Wichita
Maize
Cities that do not fit easily in one category.
Roeland Park- illegal on any city owned property. Excluding streets and street right-of-ways.
*Lawrence, KS has a law against carrying a firearm openly within 200 feet of a bar that serves alcohol by the glass. You may pass by on a sidewalk and you must obey traffic control devices, but stopping in front of a bar unnecessarily is breaking the law. Liquor stores are fine because they cannot serve by the glass. Any restaurant that serves liquor in a glass is also a no-go (Applebees, TGIFridays) are included in this. This law only effects the 200 feet of public property surrounding the building. You may enter the store next to the bar, but you may not stand unnecessarily outside the front door. Private property is under the rule of the owner of said establishment or household.Last edited on Sun Dec 23rd, 2007 02:29 am by nikerret

Side note - your mileage will vary OCing in these areas because I've yet to see anyone but LEOs do it. At that, expect to be harassed by LEOs as well.

As long as you know the city code for every city you OC in you should be fine. Make sure you carefully read the code. Legalese can be deceiving at best.
I have personally OC'd in Lawrence, Baldwin, Wellsville, Eudora, Overland Park, and Olathe. I have either directly asked a LEO and/or looked up the city codes myself.

Gentlemen-
I will be visiting you fair state next week. Anyone know where I can find concealed reciprocacy laws? I already read most of what I could find on gun laws in general. Here's what I took from what I found- please let me know if you think I'm off;
SB552- Agents of the state can not seize firearms except during the course of a crime investigation/ Governer now can not restrict the sale/carry of arms even during a state of emergency.
HB2528- It appears you are making steps toward premption- although this was a little hard to understand;
Section 1. K.S.A. 2006 Supp. 12-16,124 is hereby amended to readas follows: 12-16,124. (a) No city or county shall adopt any ordinance,resolution or regulation, and no agent of any city or county shall take anyadministrative action, governing the purchase, transfer, ownership, stor-age or transporting of firearms or ammunition, or any component or com-bination thereof, other than those expressly authorized by statute. Exceptas provided in subsection (b) and subsection (a) of K.S.A. 2006 Supp. 75-7c11, and amendments, any such ordinance, resolution or regu-lation adopted prior to the effective date of this 2007 act shall be null andvoid. (the following was lined out as null and void in the bill text) For purposes of this section, a statute that does not refer to firearms or ammunition, or components or combinations thereof, shall not be construed to provide express authorization.
(b) Nothing in this section shall:
(1) Prohibit a city or county from adopting any zoning measure re-
lated to firearms licensees if otherwise authorized by law to do so;...
(remainder ommitted to save space)
SB185- almost identical to HB2528
Thanks in advance for any help you are willing to provide.

Go straight to the KS attorney generals office for CCH laws. http://www.ksag.org
On the right hand side there is a quick link to the Concealed Carry Unit's page.
Do you have any other specific questions?

If I recall correctly KS allows CCW for any out of state visitor that has a valid CCW permit from the state they live in. The attorney general has a list of approved states but note that a person living in Illinois with a valid Florida OOS permit cannot legally CCW in KS.

Incorrect. I live in VA, and have a resident VA permit. I am not allowed to CC in KS.

Yeah, WA doesn't work in KS. I talked to the Ellis County Sheriff's dept. Apparently KS wants $110 for a permit. I want a MO permit they make you be 23 and meet almost every CCW standard that they can- so their permits are honored in all but the most liberal states, only like 8. However you have to be a MO resident.
Ellis County also doesn't allow OC, according to them. I will review the AG site.

Yep, you are both correct. My comment should have said:
If I recall correctly KS only allows CCW for an out of state visitor that has a valid CCW permit from the state they live in; as long as a reciprocal agreement has been reached. But not all states have reciprocity with Kansas.
Thanks for correcting me.
