I never knew Wal-Mart or anyone else who was licensed to sell alcohol was off limits to OC.
NMSA 30-7-3(A)(4)(a), which states (summarily):
A. Unlawful carrying of a firearm in an establishment licensed to dispense alcoholic beverages consists of carrying a loaded or unloaded firearm on any premises licensed by the regulation and licensing department for the dispensing of alcoholic beverages except:
(4). by a [duly licensed] person carrying a concealed handgun...on the premises of:
(a). a licensed establishment that does not sell alcoholic beverages for consumption on the premises...
So, as long as I am in possession of my valid CCW license, I can carry concealed into Wal-Mart, Albertsons, Walgreens, Pic Quik, etc.
Furthermore, NMSA 30-7-3(A)(4)(b), which states (summarily):
A. Unlawful carrying of a firearm in an establishment licensed to dispense alcoholic beverages consists of carrying a loaded or unloaded firearm on any premises licensed by the regulation and licensing department for the dispensing of alcoholic beverages except:
(4). by a [duly licensed] person carrying a concealed handgun...on the premises of:
(b). a restaurant licensed to sell only beer and wine that derives no less than sixty percent of its annual gross receipts from the sale of food for consumption on the premises...
So, that pretty much includes (??) Applebee's, Chili's, Olive Garden, etc. because I'm more than certain that they make at least 60% of their AGR from food sales (unless, of course, they post "conspicuous" signs at all public entrances, or verbally inform you, stating no firearms are allowed).
This would EXCLUDE (I'm sure) places like: High Desert Brewery, Jose Murphy's, etc. Obviously, bars are out of the question.
