Can individuals carry firearms in state parks in New Mexico?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only with a special permit

  4. Only unloaded and locked up

The correct answer is: Yes

State parks in New Mexico fall in the jurisdiction of state laws, not federal laws. State law in New Mexico allows individuals to carry firearms in state parks, as long as they are not under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Choosing options B, C, or D is incorrect, as they all place restrictions on individual's ability to carry firearms in state parks, which is not the case according to New Mexico law.
