To safely transport a firearm, which action should you take?

  1. Carry it loaded and ready to use

  2. Keep the action open and the firearm unloaded

  3. Leave the safety on but keep it loaded

  4. Transport it only at night

The correct answer is: Keep the action open and the firearm unloaded

It is always important to prioritize safety when handling firearms. Option A, carrying a loaded and ready to use firearm, is highly dangerous and goes against basic firearm safety rules. Option C, leaving the safety on but keeping it loaded, is also not recommended as the safety could potentially be disengaged during transportation and cause an accident. Option D, transporting it only at night, is not relevant as safety measures should be followed at all times, regardless of the time of day. Therefore, the best and safest option is to keep the action open and the firearm unloaded during transportation. This ensures that the firearm cannot accidentally discharge and cause harm.
