Which of the following would disqualify an individual from obtaining a concealed carry permit in New Mexico?

  1. Being over the age of 21

  2. Having a felony conviction

  3. Not being a resident of New Mexico

  4. All of the above

The correct answer is: Having a felony conviction

A felony conviction would disqualify an individual from obtaining a concealed carry permit in New Mexico. This is because individuals with a felony conviction are prohibited from possessing firearms, which is a requirement for obtaining a concealed carry permit. The other options, being over the age of 21 and not being a resident of New Mexico, may actually be requirements for obtaining a concealed carry permit. However, they alone would not disqualify an individual from obtaining one. Therefore, they are incorrect options. Option D, "All of the above," is incorrect because only option B, having a felony conviction, would disqualify an individual from obtaining a concealed carry permit.
