In Missouri, who is NOT eligible to receive a CCW permit?

  1. A person convicted of a felony

  2. An individual on parole

  3. A person who has never handled a firearm

  4. A person under 21 years of age

The correct answer is: A person convicted of a felony

A person convicted of a felony is not eligible to receive a CCW permit in Missouri due to the serious nature of felony convictions. Felons are restricted from owning or carrying firearms for public safety reasons, as they have demonstrated a disregard for the law. This restriction helps ensure that those who have committed serious crimes do not have access to concealed weapons. Option B, C, and D are incorrect: - An individual on parole is generally not eligible to receive a CCW permit as they are still under legal supervision and must adhere to specific restrictions, making them ineligible. - A person who has never handled a firearm can still be eligible to receive a CCW permit in Missouri as long as they meet all the other requirements and undergo the necessary training. - In Missouri, persons under 21 years of age are generally not eligible to receive a CCW permit, as the minimum age requirement is 19 years in Missouri.
