U.S.A. -(AmmoLand.com)-Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham announced Wednesday that small retail businesses in the state, including gun stores, can operate at 25% of fire code capacity effective Saturday, May 16, as long as COVID-safe practices are in place.
Even with that limited opening, her order provides little relief to firearm retailers who have been shut down in Cibola, McKinley and San Juan Counties — including Papas Pawn & Gun in Grants that New Mexico State officials fined $60,000 while they remained open to sell to law enforcement during this crisis. Stores in these counties may operate by appointment only now — weeks after their counterparts in the rest of New Mexico were allowed to incrementally open their businesses and allow their customers to exercise their Second Amendment rights.
It should never have come — or continue — to this. The Right To Keep And Bear Arms is essential. That is why NRA and pro-Second Amendment groups sued the governor over her gun store shutdown/firearm purchase ban in the first place. We won’t stop until every New Mexican’s rights are restored!

Are all ‘essential’ businesses required to operate in this fashion or is it only gun stores? If it’s the latter the lawsuits should be filed.
All of them are.
If your county sheriff or local police have been straight with you then do business with them.
If your county sheriff or local police have acted poorly then fuch them! The governor says not to do business without an appointment,,,,,, where’s yours?
She’d just as soon take every gun from the citizens.

Hang her!
To allow this crazy b*tch to be elected in the first place, and then to allow her to impose her draconian and unconstitutional “orders” on the citizens without doing anything other than giving lip service and filing impotent law suits in liberal dominated state courts shows just how low the citizens of New Mexico (and other states with similar liberal governors) have sunk and how far feminism has succeeded in emasculating the males of New Mexico and other states. Tolerance is approval, compliance is support. Shame on you for allowing this to happen and to continue.
