    NewMexicoGuns.co, free buy / sell / trade

    Hello all, I just wanted to drop in and let you all know that we just released a new service for residents of New Mexico looking to buy, sell, or trade firearms and anything firearms related. Hunting, camping, outdoors, survival, edged instruments or ammo, you name it. The site is completely...

    Concealed carry question, for out of state non-residents

    My wife and I are planning a small trip in January to not only celebrate her birthday but our anniversary in February. This trip will be taking us through Texas for a few days and while learning your local laws so that we can legally bring our sidearms, I noticed that Texas may be one of the few...

    .22 better than 45 ?? 380 best -- for handguns ... shotgun #1 - self defense

    How many people firing .22 see at least one of these per magazine, regardless of the firearm being used (bad, good, brand name, walmart special)? I'd rather fire a round that doesn't malfunction as often as it doesn't, and that's just my opinion.

    Did I come across wrong?

    Some people here don't seem to like LEOs, and that's fine... this thread isn't for those people so I'm asking those people who have a strong dislike to stop reading now. I have been interested in law enforcement since I was younger, in fact I'd have joined the military by now if it wasn't for...

    Concealed Carry for non-resident/non-citizen?

    Back story; I know this is opencarry.org but I live in New Mexico where open carry is sadly prohibited in many places I go daily, ie anywhere that has a liquor license (I know how that sounds but I'm not a drunk, we simply live in a world where everybody who can sells alcohol). I would like to...

    Thank you tractor owning gun advocates!

    We took a little drive out to BLM yesterday and had a fantastic day shooting, right up until a storm front moving in almost knocked over our little folding table. The ammo, firearms and food that was on it could barely even keep it standing! On the plus side it made the targets move too, which...

    Uh O's, can I even ask this here?

    I bought a king tuck. Yep. There are some places I will have to OC in New Mexico if we stay here and I eventually am able to acquire my CC permit. I prefer open carry for many reasons, but you cannot open carry at Wally World, Albertsons, Smiths, any gas station at all in existence here, and...

    Colorado, the possibilities...

    Well I posted in the Montana forum so I figured I should post here too. We're in New Mexico currently and looking at moving north, possibly a little bit, possibly a lot. We're researching both states as best we can, but it's always helpful to hear from the people who live there. What do you...

    Billings, how is it?

    We're considering picking up and moving. We like it here in the New Mexico, but I was born and bred in the Rockies and I've missed it for some time now. My wife is a desert rat from Nevada but I've dragged her out that way a few times and she loves the mountains and greenery too... there's more...

    Four stores, only one moment of nervousness

    Took the plunge yesterday and went all in. We visited Barnes and Noble, PetCo, Hastings and finally took a stroll through Big Lots (my wife loves bargain shopping, aughhhhh). I had a moment when we walked into Barnes and Noble, three feet inside the door I heard "Managers to the front, please"...

    Fighting for CC rights in New Mexico

    I know this is opencarry.org and probably why I can't find it, but I'm going to post and ask anyways. I think all gun rights relate, and there need be no major separation when it comes to fighting for the second amendment. I read two issues back in Guns'n'Ammo of a local NM resident (a...

    Rio Rancho OC

    Alright, I thought I had posted here before but apparently I'm just lurking around and thinking I have... Hello from the north side of town, up here in Rio Rancho. I'm new to OC. I own a Springfield XD .40, and my wife has a little (hah, little...) Charter Arms .357 pug. I love to shoot, I'm...
