I was looking through the Springfield city code and couldn't find the section for open carry. Can someone please tell me which section and article it is in.

Thanks

The state of Missouri's state laws makeOC to be legal unless a municipality makes ordinances that say otherwise. I read all of Springfield's codes involving firearms. OC is not mentioned ie making it legal. There are restrictions written in Springfield's codes to exclude OC in schools,parks,airports, and city/government buildings. To look up Springfield's weapons codes go to CHAPTER 78...ARTICLE VI....Sec. 78-258. Unlawful use of weapons. That is where any OC restrictions would be, but I looked and there aren't any.

Actually I already had 2. I will probably be picking up a G20 so I can have a bit bigger boom. My other 2 are G26's which I LOVE!!, 1 for open carry and 1 for CC backup. I will be keeping 1 for the backup, but since I OC now, size is no longer a factor for my OC piece.

yah its nice seeing our group growing every meeting.and a pretty good group of ppl. only thing well have to change is that were going to have seperate tickets next time we go to a resteraunt, since someone left without paying this time. which if someone short on cash i dont mind helping out but rather them ask then just eat and run.

mabye we could go to busiek range, or andy doltan in bois' arc. mabye noon on the 22 or 23? any suggestions on wanting to do something like that or just meeting agian at the buffet or some other resteraunt?

I know at least three of us went up when I paid. I hope it was a mistake on the restaurant's part and not ours. The girl checking us out did look a little annoyed at having to split the ticket.
It was a great time. I don't remember who on this forum was who at the restaurant as I'm not a regular here (had to look up my username to post this.) Whomever it is on this site that I was talking with about the water heater, drop me a line at aaron_green77@hotmail.com. I tried calling, but I think there were phone problems.

I look forward to the next meeting!

Take It Easy Guys,

Aaron
