It's bit of letdown to know that you can't skip the NICS check when purchasing a firearm with a MO CCP (had it wrong earlier) like I used to do in Texas, and a lot of government buildings (state and local) are off-limits. I do however like the language of a lot of their statues as it relates to firearms in vehicles at these off-limits locations. Most of them end with "Possession of a firearm in a vehicle on the premise of [insert facility in question] shall not be a criminal offense so long as the firearm is not removed from the vehicle or brandished while the vehicle is on the premise." Pretty clear without much room for interpretation. Also, no 30.06 to worry about. Any business can post a generic "No guns" sign, but the worst that happens is they can ask you to leave if found out. If you don't, then its a misdemeanor.

And if you read the statutes further you will notice if you carry into a prohibited place by accident and they find you with a gun it is not a crime unless you refuse to leave.

Oh well, since the county sheriff issues them (prints them on a card machine in-front of you) it should be an easy fix. Still, thats what I get for not checking it before I walked out...
