​Why should I get a permit if it's no longer required?


Missouri has passed into law a permit-less concealed carry system. This authorizes anyone who is not a convicted felon to carry a firearm concealed or open carry with no training. Of course there are restrictions to this permit system. Anyone carrying in this status must be aware of where they cannot carry a weapon. Unlike the CCW permit where you will not be given a warning, someone without a permit can be charged / arrested and have his / her weapon seized. The permit-less system is only authorized within the state of Missouri but a CCW permit will allow you to carry into 35 additional states. It's best to "Know the Law - Before you Draw" when carrying a concealed weapon. 


Where do I go to get my CCW renewed?​

As long as all of your information is current on your CCW Endorsement, you can file the renewal at your local Sheriff's Department.​

If your information is not current, you need to contact the agency that issued the certificate.​

When can I start the renewal process?​

Sixty days prior to the expiration date.

What is the cost of the renewal?​

$40.00 Cash, Credit, or Debit. (Check with your Sheriff's Department). ​

Is training required to carry  a concealed firearm?
