Constitution of the State of New Mexico, Section 6:

"No law shall abridge the right of the citizen to keep and bear arms for security and defense, for lawful hunting and recreational use and for other lawful purposes, but nothing herein shall be held to permit the carrying of concealed weapons. No municipality or county shall regulate, in any way, an incident of the right to keep and bear arms."

This is EXACTLY the case before the New Mexico Supreme Court with regards to Concealed Carry in this state. The law passed had a provision for local municipalities to 'opt out' of allowing CCW. Gun owners are anxiously awaiting a decision on the 'opt out' portion of the law. That provision was designed to kill this law, one way or the other.
