Travel to Missouri

Hello all

This is my first post and I apologize if this has already been answered. I have a Texas CHL and I will be traveling to Missouri through Oklahoma. Do I need to store my handgun in the truck while traveling across state lines or can I keep it within reach as I do while traveling around Dallas (concealed of course)

Thanks in advance!

You are good to go. Have a look at

and
http://www.handgunlaw.us/states/missouri.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
before you go. Maybe even print out a copy of those to take along on your trip.

However, don't even think about carrying if you go to Illinois!

Oklahoma and Missouri both have reciprocity with Texas. Many states have their own quirks but in general you would be legal in both states to carry with a Texas CHL.

Just remember it is their rules while in their state and not what you were taught in your chl class. That would only thing you have to worry about and I second the do not think about entering IL.

Missouri is not called the "Show Me" state without reason. "rlol"

I use that in my class. they are the Show Me State, but not required to show your CHL unless asked in Missouri. :???:
