Good catch on the enforcement angle. I doubt that this will be enforced in any meaningful manner that doesn't blow up in the Governor's face. Interstate 25 is a major traffic artery through the state. Is she going to have state cops pulling over people who are legally carrying in the rest of the state for passing through ABQ?

Pretty big own-goal on the part of the Governor.

It's a difficult task with no obvious solution but control of access to guns by criminals and the mentally ill, including extremist haters and those with serious anger issues, is the only way to reduce gun violence. Long prison sentences and capital punishment for criminal use of firearms would help. Accidents are another matter. Outlawing guns might take a couple of centuries and those inclined to violence would just find other weapons and more vulnerable victims.
