Mo. Senate backs bill lowering concealed carry age (From 23 to 21)

[shadowrider]

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) -- A bill lowering the age to get a concealed gun permit in Missouri is now just one step from the governor's desk.

The Senate voted 27-6 Wednesday to pass a bill lowering the concealed gun age to 21 -- the same age at which people can legally drink alcohol. The bill needs only a final House vote to go to Gov. Jay Nixon.

1. Sounds good to me

and while they are at it, lower the car rental age from 25 to 21 too.

2. You can get a concealed weapons permit in Florida if you are 21 ...

and in many other states such as Texas.
