What does New Mexico law require for carrying a concealed handgun?

  1. Completion of a firearms safety course

  2. A special endorsement on your driver license

  3. Membership in a state-approved shooting club

  4. No special requirements other than being of legal age

The correct answer is: Completion of a firearms safety course

New Mexico law states that in order to carry a concealed handgun, individuals must complete a firearms safety course. This requirement ensures that individuals have the proper knowledge and training to safely and responsibly handle a handgun. The other options, while they may provide additional knowledge and skills, are not specifically required by law for carrying a concealed handgun. Possessing a special endorsement on a driver license, being a member of a state-approved shooting club, or simply being of legal age may be beneficial or recommended, but they are not necessary for compliance with New Mexico law.
