FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
§§70.441, 571.030, 571.101, 571.107, 571.111, 571.205, 577.703, and 577.712 – CCW
In response to a previous version, officials from the Office of the State Courts Administrator,
the Kansas City Police Department, the St. Joseph Police DepartmentSt. Louis County
Police Department, and the Phelps County Sheriff’s Department assumed the proposal will
have no fiscal impact on their respective organizations.
Oversight does not have any information to the contrary. Therefore, Oversight will reflect a zero
impact in the fiscal note for these agencies.
Oversight notes this bill lowers the age requirement from nineteen to eighteen for a concealed
carry permit, which may increase the number of CCW applications submitted to county sheriffs.
Oversight assumes any increase in revenue to sheriff’s departments will be offset by an increase
in cost to process the applications for CCW permits. Therefore, the impact to local governments-
sheriff’s departments will be presented as netting to $0.

Oversight assumes House Amendment 1 is a title change and will have no fiscal impact on state
or local governments.

FISCAL DESCRIPTION
Currently, it is a crime to board a bus with a dangerous or deadly weapon or carry such a weapon
in a terminal.
This bill allows a concealed carry permit holder to lawfully carry firearms on public
transportation, as defined in the bill. Anyone with a permit may also carry a firearm while L.R. No. 0439H.02P

traveling by bus. This bill does not apply to property of Amtrak or any partnership in which
Amtrak engages.
This bill expands the listed items that satisfy the requirement that an applicant for a concealed
carry permit demonstrate knowledge of firearms safety training to include, for active duty
military service members, receipt of a pistol marksmanship recognition.
Currently, an applicant is not eligible for a concealed carry permit or a Missouri lifetime or
extended concealed carry permit if the applicant has pled guilty to, entered a plea of nolo
contendere, or been convicted of a crime punishable by imprisonment of a term exceeding one
year or has pled guilty to or entered a plea of nolo contendere to one or more misdemeanor
offenses involving crimes of violence within a five-year period immediately preceding
application for the permit. This bill removes the ban on eligibility for a concealed carry permit or
a Missouri lifetime or extended concealed carry permit if the applicant has pled guilty to or
entered a plea of nolo contendere of such crimes.
This bill expands the list of persons exempted from certain prohibitions on the unlawful use of
weapons as provided for in 571.030, RSMo, to now include certain retired judiciary members
and current and former members of the General Assembly.
This bill lowers the age requirement from at least 19 to 18 years of age or older for concealed
carry permits.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not
require additional capital improvements or rental space.
