What is the legal blood alcohol content limit for carrying a firearm 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 while under the influence, regardless of the blood alcohol content (BAC) level. Therefore, the correct answer is 0.00%, as any amount of alcohol in the system is considered a violation of the law. Option A (0.08%) is the legal BAC limit for driving a vehicle, not for carrying a firearm. Option C (0.02%) and D (0.04%) are also incorrect as they suggest that there is an acceptable BAC limit for carrying a firearm, which is not the case in New Mexico. It is important to always refrain from consuming alcohol when planning to carry a firearm in order to avoid any potential legal consequences.
