Which federal law affects where Missourians can carry concealed firearms, despite state laws?

The Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act
The Federal Gun-Free School Zones Act
The National Firearms Act
The Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act

The correct answer is: The Federal Gun-Free School Zones Act

The Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act (A) requires background checks for gun purchases from licensed dealers. The National Firearms Act (C) regulates the ownership of certain firearms and accessories such as machine guns and silencers. The Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act (D) also includes provisions related to the regulation of firearms. The Federal Gun-Free School Zones Act (B) prohibits individuals from possessing firearms within 1000 feet of a school zone. This federal law overrides any state laws on the matter, creating a uniform rule across the country. This means that even if Missouri state laws permit concealed carry in certain areas, the Federal Gun-Free School Zones Act still applies. Therefore, this is the correct answer to the question.
