What is the legal blood alcohol concentration limit for carrying a firearm in public 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, it is against the law to possess a firearm while under the influence of alcohol. The legal blood alcohol concentration limit for carrying a firearm in public in New Mexico is 0.02%, as stated in the state's firearms and alcohol prohibition law. This means that if you are caught carrying a firearm in public while having a blood alcohol concentration of 0.02% or higher, you could face legal consequences. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the specific legal limit for carrying a firearm while under the influence in New Mexico. It is important to know and follow this limit to avoid any potential legal issues.
