Are background checks required for private gun sales in New Mexico?
Yes
No
Only for sales at gun shows
Only for handgun sales
The correct answer is: Yes
Private gun sales in New Mexico do not require background checks. Option A is the only accurate response as it correctly states that background checks are required for all types of gun sales in the state. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they suggest that background checks are not required at all, which is not the case for most states. In New Mexico, background checks are required for private gun sales in addition to firearm purchases at gun shows and for handgun sales.
