In New Mexico, is it legal to carry a concealed handgun in a bar or restaurant that serves alcohol?

  1. Yes, with a concealed carry permit

  2. No, it's not allowed regardless of having a permit

  3. Yes, if the owner gives consent

  4. No, unless the gun is unloaded

The correct answer is: No, it's not allowed regardless of having a permit

While it is legal to carry a concealed handgun in New Mexico with a permit, it is not allowed in bars or restaurants that serve alcohol. This law applies regardless of whether or not the owner gives consent, and regardless of whether or not the gun is unloaded. This is because it is considered unsafe and potentially dangerous to carry a firearm in an establishment that serves alcohol. It is important for individuals to be aware of and comply with all laws and regulations regarding concealed carry in their state.
