More practical is there is a ten round limit on magazines, few places off limit. Pretty sure there is no capacity limit in NM. They were trying for 9, but I believe it failed. From what I’ve seen of NM, is can be a very pretty state from a geography perspective but the towns are mostly a total dumpster fire. I’ve always wanted to explore the NM Rockies more, but every time I drive through the state I’m ready to leave.

Gallup on a Saturday night. I could only imagine. Dodging drunks all night. Ate well at Ella's in Reserve NM many times.

I carried a Glock 43 the whole length of NM this spring. I know open carry is legal there; I didn’t look into mag limits as my little backpacking gun only holds 6 + 1. I bought my first real gun in ABQ in the late 70’s as a teenager. Not even sure I had to show an ID. Had that rifle behind the seat of my truck all through high school. How times have changed. Ugh.
NM is a complex place. Those who know, know what I mean. I’m not going into it too deep here. If ever there was a place to keep front-of-mind that other folks can be living in a whole other cultural reality than yours, yet be just as American as you are, it’s there. The town I grew up in has the oldest church in North America. The place (NM) is just steeped in history, much of it very dark. I can and have taken people to places, just random-seeming places in the desert, where you are literally crunching along on the shards of those who came before you. In NM, almost unique in this way, many of those cultures are still more or less intact, albeit not always thriving. It’s heavy. It’s real. It’s gorgeous. It’s New Mexico.

The climate is great
The political climate, not so much
People are fleeing to red states in droves.
Sad
The people wringing their hands over Trump's rhetoric don't know what time it is in America.

That being said, I'll agree with you that it is a unique landscape and a very spiritual land once you leave the cities behind, as well as being an incredibly complex land. I lived there from the age of two until I was 15 or 16. Went back every summer until I graduated high school. It is truly the Land and Enchantment. It just takes time to see.

Thanks. I grew up in Socorro, not far south of you. I was just in the ABQ a couple months ago, after our big hike. It’s still a shïthole, haha. Lived there for some years, going to UNM.

Still love going to Dion's, Rudy's and Whataburger. Best Mexican place in ABQ is Monroe's. My picture is on the wall. Sadie's is pretty good too.
