Is it mandatory to inform a police officer that you're carrying a concealed weapon during a traffic stop in Missouri?

Yes, always
No, but it is recommended
Only if the officer asks
Only if you are carrying the weapon on your person

The correct answer is: Yes, always

In Missouri, it is mandatory to inform a police officer that you're carrying a concealed weapon during a traffic stop. This is because Missouri is an "open carry" state, which means that individuals are allowed to openly carry firearms without a concealed carry permit. However, if a person is carrying a concealed weapon, it is required to inform the officer upon any interaction, including a traffic stop. Option B is incorrect because while it may not be required, it is still recommended to inform the officer for safety and transparency purposes. Option C is incorrect because the law in Missouri does not specify that the officer must ask about a concealed weapon before the individual must inform them. Option D is incorrect because whether the weapon is on your person or not, the law still requires you to inform the officer.
