Missouri to allow Some Silencers as of August 28, 2008

Missouri House Bill 2034 SECTION 571.020


This act allows licensed importers, manufacturers, dealers, or collectors to possess, manufacture, transport, repair, or sell a firearm silencer as a curio, ornament, or keepsake.


Currently, it is not a crime for a person to possess, manufacture,
transport, repair, or sell a firearm silencer if such action was incident to dealing with the silencer as a curio, ornament, or keepsake, or it is used in a lawful dramatic performance, but only if the silencer is in a non-functioning condition. Under this act, the silencer would not have to be in such non-functioning condition.

This section is identical to certain provisions to SCS/SB 1172 (2008).
