Is it legal to carry a concealed firearm into a bar or a restaurant that serves alcohol in New Mexico?

Yes, in all cases
No, it is illegal
Yes, if the establishment does not derive more than 60% of its income from alcohol
Yes, but only with permission from the owner

The correct answer is: Yes, if the establishment does not derive more than 60% of its income from alcohol

It is not legal to carry a concealed firearm into a bar or restaurant that serves alcohol in New Mexico in all cases, as option A suggests. This could potentially put others at risk and is therefore prohibited. Option B is incorrect because there are certain circumstances where it is legal, as in the case of option C. Option D is incorrect because it is not necessary to have permission from the owner, but rather to ensure that the establishment does not make more than 60% of its income from alcohol. Overall, the most accurate option is C because it provides a specific condition under which it would be legal to carry a concealed firearm into a bar or restaurant serving alcohol in New Mexico.
