Missouri becomes the 11th state to eliminate the need for a permit to carry a concealed handgun.

With the overturning of the Democratic Governor’s veto of a measure to allow permitless carry of firearms by law-abiding citizens in West Virginia this week, similar bills in at least two additional states are showing momentum during their respective 2016 legislative sessions.

In an effort to encourage citizens to arm and defend themselves in the aftermath of recent mass shootings and terrorist-related activities in the U.S., Paris and elsewhere, sheriffs in three Missouri counties this week announced they were lowering the cost of applying for concealed carry permits in The Show-Me State.

The county's only remaining primary lead smelter is scheduled to shutter its operations forever on December 31, 2013.

Several pro-gun measures pass through the Show-Me State legislature.

It took multiple years, two hard-fought election cycles, and culminated with the overriding of a gubernatorial veto in 2003, so Missourians are anything but complacent when it comes to their right to carry concealed for personal protection.
