New Mexico no longer accepts TN carry permit?

[vontar]

I just noticed today that New Mexico used to accept the TN carry permit and no longer does.

 2023 I visited parts of New Mexico.

 

Planning my next vacation i was checking the states I may be driving though and noticed New Mexico was red. I knew in 2023 it was OK.

 

Now per https://handgunlaw.us/states/tennessee.pdf   New Mexico no longer accepts TN carry permits since around 9/06/2025

 

9/6/2024 – New Mexico No Longer Honors the Tennessee Permit to Carry. Map Updated. 1309 In Places Off Limits Pepper

Any idea why they stopped accepting TN carry permit?

apears they honor several other states carry permit,  why don't they like us?

That sucks. I worked there on/off fifteen years. They always had open carry and a lots of people did everywhere. Then they went to CC with shall issue  Is it because of online permits,18 yo active duty,something else.?   is open carry still on for anyone?

They dropped TN years ago after TN started a two tier system.  The new non-enhanced permit required less training and NM wasn’t happy about it.
