What must individuals do to legally carry a concealed handgun in New Mexico?

Complete a firearms training course
Be over 21 years old
Pass a background check
All of the above

The correct answer is: All of the above

Individuals must complete a firearms training course, be over 21 years old, and pass a background check in order to legally carry a concealed handgun in New Mexico. This is because all of these requirements must be met in order to obtain a concealed carry permit, which is required in the state. Option A, completing a firearms training course, is not enough on its own as individuals must also be a certain age and have a clean background check. Option B, being over 21 years old, is not enough on its own as individuals must also complete a firearms training course and pass a background check. Option C, passing a background check, is not enough on its own as individuals must also be a certain age and complete a firearms training course. Therefore, the only correct answer is option D, as all of the options must be met to legally carry a concealed handgun in New Mexico.
