ABQjournal: Richardson Getting Concealed-Gun License to Show Support for Law By Jeff Jones | Journal Politics Writer
Gov. Bill Richardson is getting a license to pack heat.
The governor recently passed the state testing to carry a concealed handgun, and his permit is being processed, a spokesman said Friday.
But that doesn't mean Richardson will be slipping his Glock 9mm handgun under his jacket. Spokesman Gilbert Gallegos said Richardson doesn't intend to carry a concealed gun. He said the governor went through the application and testing process— including shelling out the $100 fee and undergoing fingerprinting and background check— to show his support for the state's concealed-carry law, which he signed into law in 2003.
