What is Missouri’s stance on the open carry of firearms?

It is prohibited statewide
It is allowed without a permit
It is allowed only with a CCW permit
It is allowed but local governments can opt out

The correct answer is: It is allowed but local governments can opt out

The state of Missouri allows the open carry of firearms, but local governments have the option to prohibit it within their jurisdictions. This means that while open carry is generally allowed, it may not be permitted in certain areas depending on local laws and regulations. Option A is incorrect because it states that open carry is prohibited statewide, which is not true. Option B is not entirely correct either, as Missouri does require a permit for open carry but local governments may still opt out. Option C is also incorrect because it implies that open carry is only allowed with a specific type of permit (CCW), which is not the case in Missouri.
