Sheriffs' departments are prepared to issue conceal and carry applications tomorrow, depending on a judge's decision.
Since the override for conceal and carry, many citizens across Missouri have called their local sheriffs' department.
Every sheriffs' department has prepared applications for citizens wanting permits.
Marco Tapia, executive director of the deputy sheriffs' association, says they're ready.
Citizens who want a permit must go through at least eight hours of weapons training before they can apply.
