It appears that when you apply for a CCW in NM, the State Police in Santa Fe do a NICS background check, and the local constabulary is not consulted. so it isn't a popularity contest, and an antigun LEO can't block you. is this correct?

New Mexico is a "shall issue" state meaning that if you fill out the forms correctly, complete the required training, and pass the NICS check - you cannot be barred from being issued a concealed carry permit.

All NM firearm laws are State laws and the local governments or police agencies have no influence on issuing a concealed carry permit.
