What is the primary rule of gun safety?

  1. Always point the gun in a safe direction

  2. Keep your finger on the trigger

  3. Unload the gun when not in use

  4. Store ammunition in the same case as the gun

The correct answer is: Always point the gun in a safe direction

The primary rule of gun safety is always to point the gun in a safe direction. This is crucial to prevent any accidental injuries in case the gun is fired unintentionally.

This rule emphasizes the importance of being mindful of the direction the gun is pointed at all times.
