Ok so I am 18 as of OCT and am possibly going to get a handgun for xmas (College soon so, its a weigh between a laptop and some other things or a handgun and a desktop)
Before I make a choice I want to know the laws of missouri for open carry. Would it be legal for me to carry a handgun I legally own? Whats the best way to do this, them giving me the money to buy the gun from a private individual or them buying a gun as a gift and giving it to me? I dont want to unintentionally commit a straw purchase. I would be picking out said handgun (was really hoping to find a lionheart lh9) If they can buy the gun I'm no longer limited to private dealers correct? The last thing I want to do is commit a felony
I am in Ripley county MO but the college is in Butler county Mo. Will be car pooling or using the bus till I can afford a vehicle.
