What is the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit while carrying a firearm in New Mexico?

  1. 0.08%

  2. 0.04%

  3. 0.02%

  4. There is no specified limit

The correct answer is: 0.02%

In New Mexico, the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit while carrying a firearm is 0.02%. This means that if a person's BAC is over 0.02%, they are not legally allowed to carry a firearm. Option A is incorrect because 0.08% is the standard legal BAC limit for driving a vehicle in New Mexico, but it is not the limit for carrying a firearm. Option B is also incorrect for the same reason. Option D may seem like a possible solution, but there is actually a specified limit of 0.02%. Therefore, option D is not the correct answer. This shows the importance of knowing the specific laws and regulations in different situations, as they can vary.
