How is a lost or stolen firearm to be reported in New Mexico?

  1. Within 48 hours to the local police

  2. There is no legal requirement to report

  3. Within 5 days to the state police

  4. Immediately, but only if the firearm is registered

The correct answer is: There is no legal requirement to report

None of the other options are correct because New Mexico does not have a statewide requirement to report a lost or stolen firearm. However, some local jurisdictions may have their own reporting requirements. It is always a good idea to report a lost or stolen firearm to the local police and to check with the city or county government for any additional reporting requirements.
