In October 2003, Missouri Attorney General Jay Nixon stated that personally he was against Concealed Carry for Missouri residents.

He is anti gun.

Governor Nixon:

For example, he asked, “what would have happened during World War II if states had exempted their citizens from the Burke-Wadworth Act, which imposed the draft?”

Liberty? An end to the tyrannical Roosevelt regime? Upholding of Constitutional separation of powers?

All of the above seem to fit.

Is a legislative over-ride possible or likely?

The R's have 2/3 in both chambers, but just barely. Yes, it can be over-ridden, along with every other veto he's signed.
