Can New Mexico residents carry a concealed firearm in other states?

  1. Yes, in all states

  2. No, not in any state

  3. Yes, but only in states that recognize New Mexico's permit

  4. Yes, if they have a federal permit

The correct answer is: Yes, but only in states that recognize New Mexico's permit

Not all states have a reciprocity agreement with New Mexico, meaning they do not recognize or accept New Mexico's concealed carry permit. Therefore, option A and B are incorrect. Option D refers to a federal permit, which does not exist as such. There is a National Concealed Carry Reciprocity bill pending in Congress, but it has not been passed yet. Therefore, option D is also incorrect. Option C specifies the correct information, as it states that New Mexico residents can carry a concealed firearm in states that recognize their permit.
