Summary of the Introduced Bill

HB 875 -- Regulation of the Carrying of Firearms

Sponsor:  Largent

Currently, political subdivisions are allowed to adopt ordinances
which regulate the open carrying of firearms if they conform to
state laws.  This bill removes this authority and requires
political subdivisions to regulate firearms in the same manner as
the state by adopting ordinances consistent with the weapons
offenses in Sections 571.010 - 571.070, RSMo, and with the
justification defense in Chapter 563.
