Not even a grandfather clause.

Hmmm, would drug lords and gangbangers in New Mexico respect such a law?

Might such a law be selectively enforced?

[rigelkentaurus]

Notice there is no exception for residents of other states whose only purpose is merely driving through New Mexico.

Was high capacity magazines defined? How large?

[kiryandil]

or “a peace officer, in accordance with the policies of the peace officer’s law enforcement agency,”

Some animals are more equal than others in New Mexico...

[NorthMountain]

a peace officer

That's one of the ways we know these democRATs are totalitarian monsters ... always empowering the State at the expense of We the People.

[Do_Tar]

I’m a member of the militia. That’s “armed forces”, right?

“It is unlawful for a person to possess or transfer a large-capacity magazine within New Mexico, except when the person is: a resident of another state who transports a large-capacity magazine into New Mexico for use exclusively in an established shooting competition” or “a peace officer, in accordance with the policies of the peace officer’s law enforcement agency,” with multiple caveats. Other minor exceptions include being a member of the armed forces, certain manufacturers, certain armored vehicle operators, or those displaying such weapons in government-run museums or exhibits.

How about Safe Passage when the owner keeps traveling"? Just going through their s#!thole state on the way to a free state?

Safe Passage provision in FOPA, 18 U.S. Code, Section 926A,

The worthless republicans need to wake up.
Every time the communists introduce one of these 2A violations the republicans should have some type of counter bill waiting on some ones desk ready to go.
Maybe a bill seeking to require all heads of households to own and be proficient in the use of a long gun.
Maybe a bill requiring 30% of all school staffs be trained and armed.
Doesn't matter what it is as long as it pisses the commies off.
Let them spend some time fighting these types of bills from our side, one after another.

I enjoy vacationing in NM. Fly fishing the Pecos. But the last decade or so there was an infestation of rat crap kalifornians.

Same old same old.

[wjcsux]

Good luck enforcing this in Catron County.

[RedElement]

Not just an anti-AR law. Even my Glock 26 has a 10 rnd mag. The std Glock 19 mag is 15 rounds. Haven’t found a 9 rnd mag for either. If the law passes, wait and see if the market comes up with 9 rnd mags for either.

[nonliberal]

The police should not be exempt.
