“A panel of federal appellate judges ruled Tuesday that New Mexico’s seven-day waiting period on gun purchases likely [sic] infringes on citizens’ Second Amendment rights, putting the law on hold pending a legal challenge. The ruling by the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals sends the case back to a lower court. New Mexico’s waiting period went into effect in May 2024, and does hold an exception for concealed permit holders. … Since 2019, [governor Michelle] Lujan Grisham has signed a raft of legislation restricting access to guns, including a ‘red flag’ law allowing a court to temporarily remove guns from people who [supposedly] might hurt themselves or others and restrictions on guns near polling places.” (08/19/25)
