"The House lived up to the energetic crowd's expectations shortly after the rally ended by passing one of the largest expansions of gun rights since the Legislature passed a law allowing concealed weapons in 2003. The measure sponsored by Republican Rep. Doug Funderburk would allow appointed school "protection officers" to carry concealed weapons, as long as they have a valid permit and register with the state Department of Public Safety." "The Missouri House measure would also declare federal gun laws to be unenforceable within the state's borders, a component that Democrats chided as unconstitutional. Rep. Chris Kelly, D-Columbia, said the bill won't be enforced but "to do so would be literally secession" from the United States."

The Constitution can be read to mean that the Feds have NO right to make gun laws and any gun laws are in the realm of State's rights.
