If you did, I apologize, because I didn't catch it.  No, not been anywhere but 67 once... For the short term, my money is going fixing the house up the way I want it, and getting that big ass mill running.  Guns will have to wait, but I wanted to read up on the CCW laws, and was shocked that I could carry without a permit.  I think I'm still going to get one, so that I can carry in other states....

They call what Missouri has "constitutional" carry but it isn't really. There are limits to in certain municipalities. Honestly I'm not totally up to speed on the subject as I have a CCW and therefor this fairly new law has interested me much. I'm sure someone on here will know the particulars and will fill you in.

The biggest thing I've heard is that carry in restricted places where with a permit you can only get charged with trespassing, will be an actual crime without a permit.

Since I already have mine, I'll maintain it...  

Plus, down here in the Sticks its easier to renew at the local Sheriffs Office than it was in St. Louis...  I hated going to Clayton, finding parking and dealing with the polite folks behind the desk... I usually ended up sitting shoulder to shoulder with grumpy ass folks trying to get their security guard license... Waste of a day...

Yes you can.  
Get the license anyway to avoid goofy laws and the occasionally misinformed know-it-all.    Save yourself headaches.  Just saying.

Yeah, the plan was to get the license for reciprocity...  However, that won't work for IL, obviously...

Having your Missouri permit will make it legal to have your gun loaded and ready to go, in your car, or on your person in your car, while in Illinois.

Just don't get out of your car with the gun on you.

As someone who lived there all of my adult life, and who submitted my CCL application the day it became available to do so, I can tell you that you can carry loaded, as he said, so long as you don't step out of the car with it.  What is stupid though, is that if you leave the car, it has to be kept in a locked container...  Which means, for most people, they will have to empty the gun then leave the car with it, and lock it in the backseat or trunk.  Then, reverse when they get back in... Just a bunch of crap.

On a phone currently, but the last time I  looked at the statute, that was only for people passing through the state with an out of state Ccw

As an Illinois resident, you should have heard of the supreme court case in 2013 or somewhere about that time that ruled your center console is a container and your weapon could be stored in it with mag inserted.

My last trip trough Illinois was in May of this year and had the statutes printed out. I tossed them as soon as I  got here. Once I get time at a computer, I'll look them up again.

Okay that looks different than the statute I  had. Thanks for the update. Also if you look at 3,  it says the gun can be in a locked vehicle and doesn't need a separate locked container.

Yeah, I remember them doing that now... They did it because people were getting out in school parking lots to store their gun...  Nothing like scaring people about a school shooting than someone simply disasrming.
