We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

You can also carry in the San Mateo Super Center. It is right next to a school, so it is prohibited from carrying alcohol.1. The statute above clearly states "by a person carrying a CONCEALED handgun"!
2. All but only two of the Wal-Mart's in NM that have licenses to dispense are Supercenters. SO, if the Wal-Mart is NOT a Supercenter and it is NOT Neighborhood Market #3317 in ABQ, or Wal-Mart Stores East, LP in Ruidoso Downs THEN it IS LEGAL to open carry in the Wal-Mart regardless of whether or not that Wal-Mart sells alcohol. The statute only prohibits open carry in a LICENSED establishment.

i know you can't carry on school property but is there anything that extends the distance, say to include a store that's right next to school property?

Not that I know of. And you can carry on school property if you do not get out of your vehicle. It's how I get away with carrying to class and then locking it up before I get out of my Jeep.is there a statute preventing carry within a certain distance of schools?

Trust me, ABQ police don't share that view on the law. Their take is that you cannot walk into any place that sells alcohol if you are open carrying. Period. Now, if you're in WM with a CCW, then you're ok even if you are buying alcohol

Open carry where alcohol is sold, regardless whether for on-premises or off-premises consumption is prohibited by law in NM.
The change we made to the law in the 2007 session with HB 588 was specific to and applies only to concealed firearm licensees. The change allows a concealed licensee to carry a concealed firearm into establishments that sell alcohol for off-premises consumption ONLY, and only where an establishment owner has not posted ***any sign that prohibits carry of a firearm in his establishment***that is not the NM Regulation & Licensing Department, Alcohol & Gaming Division sign. http://www.rld.state.nm.us/AGD/PDFs/No%20Firearms.pdf.pdf That sign applies only to unlicensed persons, and to licensed persons that are not carry concealed. In other words - if you carry a firearm in ANY licensed liquor establishment openly - you will be charged and found guilty of violating our laws.
We worked very hard to insure the language was clear. Re-reading it even now, I am unable tounderstand how it can be mis-interrupted to allow open carry where alcohol is sold.
