we were told by our company that we couldent have any firearms in our cars im company parking lots. the company has lots of different places to park in a few different states. i park in KY and found KY Revised Statuets that give me the right to have my gun in my car. but i cnat find anything for Missouri. any of you guys (or girls ;) ) know if there is a law like that, and where i can find it to print.

The new laws in Missouri do not allow company's to stop any one from keeping a gun in there car, we are protected by our new law, but it is a good idea not to let anyone know about your gun it could easily be stolen from the car.

Nothing protects a Missouri employee from being terminated for firearms on employer property if such prohibition is company policy. It does protect them from being arrested even though there would be a good chance the local LEO will provide a further hassle if called in.

Best advice: Put it in your 'locked' glove box and keep yer mouth shut.

If your employer finds out they can fire you for it and there is nothing you can do about it since Missouri is not a right to work state.
