TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) - The Kansas Attorney General's Office says the state received the second highest number of concealed carry applications in the last fiscal year.
The attorney general announced in a news release Monday that more than 14,205 applications were received between July 1, 2013, and June 30 this year.
The highest number of applications in one fiscal year came in last year, when 25,316 applications were received.

Thirty-six other states recognize Kansas' concealed carry permits.
