    How many carry a BUG

    Unfortunately, The State of New Mexico forbids the holder of a Concealed Carry License carrying a second gun. The law does not forbid gang bangers or other illegals from carrying as many guns as they wish. It only prevents those of us who follow the law carrying a BUG.

    Redhead Spotting Scope damaged...Where to get if fixed?

    I use a Redhead Spotting scope when I compete in NRA Bullseye competition. Unfortunately I dropped it onto a concrete floor and it was damaged. When I attempt to look through it I see that one of the internal lens or prism mounts has been damaged. So the scope can't be used. Does anyone know...

    American Classic Commander 1911

    In early January, 2015 I acquired a 1911 all steel Commander that was made in the Philippians by a company called "Metro Arms." Pre-purchase research found about half of the new owners didn't like the gun and about half thought it was a great gun. My new gun was a "Jam-a-matic" at first and I...

    Need Trigger Job on new 1911

    I recently purchased a new 1911 Commander which was manufactured in the Philippians. My rotten luck with new firearms continues. This one needs a trigger job because out of the box it has a two stage trigger. It is the worst 1911 trigger I have ever found. I did a bit of research and found you...

    99% chance relo'ing to NM. Inputs please

    I guess I miss-stated my first answer. Any previous safety courses/training you may have had mean very little in New Mexico when you apply for the Concealed Carry Weapon license (CCW). You must attend the two day course compleately. The first day is dedicated to the law related to when/where...

    How to disassemble the recoil spring guide assembly in a Star PD

    I have decided to get my 34 year old Star PD back into working order. I found someone who makes the recoil buffer and I have purchased a recoil spring from Wolff springs. Now, how do I get the recoil guide apart? Looking at the exploded view, it looks like the ends unscrew. However, I can't...

    Charter Arms .44 Bulldog Stainless

    In the early 1970's I purchased a Charter Arms .44 Bulldog. It turned out to be a great little gun. I sold it to a police officer friend who needed a back-up gun. I have not seen him in a long time. I wonder if he still has the gun. I wish, now, that I had not sold it. A couple of years ago I...

    Las Cruces Shooting Range?

    I heard it had been closed due to someone's complaint. I don't know if it its true. Does any one know if the range is still open? If it is not, where do people go to qualify for the NM CCW in the Las Cruces area? Thanks.

    How many CCW holders in New Mexico?

    Does anyone know how many of us there are in New Mexico now? I am really curious to learn how many of us there are in Dona Ana County. Five years ago I heard there were around 300 or so "down" here. Should be a few more now.

    LEO Couldn't Open D/A Revolver Cylinder

    I went to a gunshow today in El Paso, Tx. I need a holster for my Charter Arms 44 Bulldog, so I took it with me. There was an officer (female, this time) at the front door to inspect all firearms entering the building. There has always been an officer there to inspect guns and install a plastic...

    Carry in a Hotel?

    I thought it was legal to carry a concealed weapon in a hotel if you are staying there. However, this weekend in Albuquerque I saw a sign on the second day of staying there which stated it was a 4th degree felony to posses a firearm (loaded or unloaded) on the premises. Bummer! I took my...
