What types of firearms are prohibited from being carried concealed in New Mexico?

  1. Assault rifles only

  2. Handguns with a caliber greater than .45

  3. Any firearm not listed on the license

  4. All of the above

The correct answer is: Any firearm not listed on the license

In New Mexico, it is illegal to carry a concealed firearm without a valid license. However, not all firearms are allowed to be carried concealed, even with a license. This means that both options A and B are incorrect, as assault rifles and handguns with a caliber greater than .45 may not be carried concealed even with a valid license. Option D is also incorrect, as not all firearms are prohibited from being carried concealed, only those that are not listed on the license. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
