Bill > HB487

This bill repeals and replaces sections of Missouri law relating to the carrying of firearms on public transportation systems. The key provisions are: 1) It allows persons with a valid concealed carry permit or endorsement to carry concealed firearms on public transportation systems, such as buses and trains, without being prohibited or impeded from accessing or using those systems. 2) It exempts certain individuals, such as law enforcement officers and persons transporting non-functioning or unloaded firearms, from the prohibitions on possessing weapons on buses and in transportation terminals. 3) It maintains penalties for unlawful acts such as fare evasion, disorderly conduct, and possession of dangerous weapons on public transportation, but provides exceptions for lawful concealed carry. Overall, the bill aims to expand the ability of concealed carry permit holders to transport firearms on public transportation systems in Missouri.
