What is the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun in New Mexico without supervision?

18 years

21 years

It may seem confusing, but the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun in New Mexico without supervision is actually 21 years old. While 18 years is the legal age to purchase a handgun, the person must be 21 to possess and transport it without supervision. Similarly, 16 years is the legal age to possess a long gun (rifle or shotgun), but not a handgun. 25 years is not a relevant age for handgun possession in New Mexico.
