What type of ammunition is prohibited for use in a concealed firearm in Missouri?

Hollow-point
Armor-piercing
Soft point
Full metal jacket

The correct answer is: Armor-piercing

Armor-piercing ammunition is prohibited for use in a concealed firearm in Missouri because it is designed with a hardened tip to penetrate armor, which increases its lethality and potential for serious injury. Hollow-point ammunition, while designed to expand upon impact for maximum damage, is not prohibited for use in a concealed firearm in Missouri. Similarly, soft point and full metal jacket ammunition do not have the same level of armor-piercing capabilities and are therefore also not prohibited in Missouri. It is important for individuals to be aware of these restrictions and adhere to them for the safety of all.
