What is the legal blood alcohol content limit for carrying a firearm in public in New Mexico?

  1. 0.08%

  2. 0.00%

  3. 0.02%

  4. 0.04%

The correct answer is: 0.00%

In New Mexico, it is illegal to carry a firearm in public if you have any amount of alcohol in your system. This includes any amount above 0.00%, meaning even a small amount of alcohol could result in a violation of the law. Option A, 0.08%, is the legal blood alcohol content limit for driving under the influence in New Mexico, but it is not relevant to carrying a firearm. Options C and D are also incorrect as any level of alcohol would still be considered a violation.
