Creates the offense of unlawful possession of an ammunition feeding device that holds more than ten rounds
HB 1823 creates a new criminal offense for possessing an ammunition feeding device (like a magazine) that holds more than ten rounds. This law directly affects individuals who own or carry such devices in Missouri, making it illegal to possess them without exception. The bill replaces existing firearm definitions and adds specific penalty provisions for this violation. It focuses solely on restricting high-capacity feeding devices, not on other firearm types or general possession.
