Can firearms be carried in state parks in New Mexico?

  1. Yes, with a concealed carry permit only

  2. No, it’s prohibited under all circumstances

  3. Yes, both open and concealed carry are allowed

  4. No, except for hunting with a valid permit

The correct answer is: Yes, with a concealed carry permit only

In New Mexico, it is generally prohibited to carry firearms in state parks. However, individuals with a concealed carry permit are legally allowed to carry firearms in state parks. The other options are incorrect because B states that it is prohibited under all circumstances, which is not true for those with a concealed carry permit. C states that both open and concealed carry are allowed, which is not accurate as only concealed carry is allowed with a permit. D limits the exception to only hunting with a valid permit, which is not the case for those with a concealed carry permit.
