Below is what I have been in contact with the Missouri dept of conservation about CCW permit while archery hunting. Start at the bottom. (Names etc removed).


Ken,
Not trying to argue, just think it is stupid that I cannot legally protect myself on my own property. If an archery hunter was going to use a gun to take an animal they would just bring a rifle instead of a bow, not a concealed pistol with a 2" barrel. Also a manual is not regulation or law! Did some research and allot of states permit CCW holders to carry while archery hunting. Has this been tested in court here in missouri for a CCW permittee?
Thanks
Brian

You'll need to comply with the Wildlife Code for matters pertaining to hunting. Here's an excerpt from http://mdc4.mdc.mo.gov/Documents/13924.pdfPoint to rememberArchers hunting deer or turkey during the archery season may not be in possession of a firearm. The following is an excerpt from MDC's Area and Resource Management Manual addressing Concealed Firearm Possession: Where conflict exists, the State Wildlife Code supercedes provisions of state law.
Thanks for your interest in conservation.

Topic: Regulations
As a concealed carry permit holder the state regulations identify areas I am not permitted to carry a concealed pistol which it does not exclude me from carrying on my own property while archery hunting. Which regulation trumps which? Yours or the state CCW regulations?
