Bottom headline:  Kansas City Star "Afternoon Catch-Up" email
Over the past two decades, Missouri lawmakers have carried out a long-term dismantling of virtually all of the state’s significant gun restrictions
That has left the state in the bottom five for the weakest gun laws in the country. That has meant repealing permit and safety training requirements to buy guns and carry them concealed, and expanding legal safeguards for using deadly force in self-defense. 
Researchers point to the 2007 General Assembly session specifically for its repeal of the requirement to obtain a permit to purchase a handgun.  [emphasis added]
