This is some very bad information on this thread.
A Missouri residentholding a non-resident CC permitfor another state (like Florida) cannot use that out-of-state "Florida-non-resident" permit as a legal method of carrying a weapon in his own home state ofMissouri.
You need to understand, the non-resident license allows you as a non-resident of that state to carry your weapon while you are in that issuing state.
If you are questioned in Missouri, and you show your Missouri Driver's License and a "Florida non-resident carry permit" and are expectingthat to circumvent theMissouri law, you will be arrested, and 99% chance you will lose in court, andyou will have permanent gun charges on your record even if you might win, which you won't.
Unless you have $$$$$ big bucks and lots of time to fight it in court all the way to the top, and just enjoy wasting your life..... think twice about this.
Use common sense.
Missouri recognizes all other states permits (resident and non resident) so I am gonna have to argue with you on this one
Thank you.
I stand corrected in that
Florida does not issue a specific NON-resident permit. A person must prove themselves a resident of Florida to obtain a CCW license in Florida, and any visitors there must have a valid CCW from their home state. Ditto for Missouri.
First, both MO and FL state that a person must be a resident of their specific state tobe issueda CCW permit for that state. Mail order a CCW? negative.
Missouri does in fact recognize all other states' CCW "in riciprosity". Both Florida and Missouri state that the reciprocal state permit holder
must conform to the varying laws of the other state.
Florida states:

A nonresident is subject to the same laws and restrictions with respect to carrying a concealed weapon or concealed firearm
as a resident of Florida who is so licensed
Missouri states
http://ago.mo.gov/Concealed-Weapons/Concealed-Carry-Reciprocity-Missouri.htm "Weapons laws in different states can and do have different definitions and restrictions......contact law enforcement authorities in those states to clarify any specific questions."
Missouri says the age is 23 minimum.....legal verbage indicates thatour hypothetical Florida resident must alsoconform to Missouri's ageminimum of23???
Again, use some common sense. No need to get a
permanent gun-violationmark on your record.
ADDITION:
http://ago.mo.gov/Concealed-Weapons/Concealed-Carry-Reciprocity-Missouri.htmlists Florida as an approved permit..... therefore implies that a LEGAL RESIDENT OF FLORIDA with a FL CCW can legally carry in MO if less than age 23.
So how do you conform to all MO laws but Not age law?
Yet to be tested in court.
