Are assault weapons banned in New Mexico?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Yes, but only in certain cities

  4. Yes, but with exceptions for certain types of guns

The correct answer is: No

It is not entirely correct to say that all assault weapons are banned in New Mexico. Under state law, private citizens are not allowed to possess or manufacture machine guns and short-barreled rifles and shotguns, which are considered assault weapons. However, there are exceptions for law enforcement and military personnel, as well as for certain antique guns. Additionally, some cities in New Mexico also have their own stricter laws on assault weapons, but it is not a statewide ban. Therefore, the correct answer is B No.
