How should you cross a fence while carrying a firearm?

  1. Climb the fence carefully with the firearm in your hand

  2. Unload the firearm and pass it to a friend

  3. Unload the firearm and use a gate if possible

  4. Throw the firearm over the fence before crossing

The correct answer is: Unload the firearm and use a gate if possible

When crossing a fence while carrying a firearm, it is important to prioritize safety and proper handling of the firearm. Option A is incorrect because climbing a fence with a loaded firearm can be dangerous and may cause accidental discharge. Option B is incorrect because unloading and passing the loaded firearm to a friend can also be risky and could potentially lead to unsafe handling of the firearm. Option D is incorrect because throwing a firearm over a fence can cause damage to the firearm and can also be unsafe if there are others or animals on the other side of the fence. Option C is the best choice because it allows the individual to safely unload the firearm and use a gate, if available, to cross the fence. This ensures that the firearm is not being carried or potentially mishandled while climbing a fence.
