Reinstates the requirement for a permit to carry concealed firearms
HB 719 reinstates the requirement for a permit to carry concealed firearms in Missouri. It mandates that most individuals need a permit to carry concealed weapons, with specific exceptions for law enforcement, military personnel, judges, and others performing official duties. The bill prohibits concealed carry in schools, churches, government buildings, and other restricted areas without a permit, while allowing transportation of firearms in vehicles under certain conditions. It does not affect permit holders or those with valid permits from Missouri or other states.
