Are background checks required for private gun sales in New Mexico?

Yes, for all sales
No
Yes, but only for handguns
Yes, for handguns and assault rifles

The correct answer is: Yes, for all sales

In New Mexico, background checks are required for all private gun sales regardless of the type of firearm being sold. Option B is incorrect because it implies that no background check is necessary for private gun sales, which is not the case. Option C is incorrect because the background check requirement applies to all types of firearms, not just handguns. Option D is incorrect because it includes only two types of firearms (handguns and assault rifles) instead of all types.
