A slip knot may easily slip, making it a poor choice for securing a firearm.

A bowline knot is more commonly used for securing a rope to a post or ring, and is not as secure as a square knot.

An overhand knot can also slip, so it is not a reliable choice for attaching a haul line to a firearm.

A square knot, on the other hand, is a strong and secure knot that is often used in outdoor and survival situations. It consists of two opposing overhand knots that are tied together, creating a tight and stable hold. This type of knot is recommended for attaching a haul line to a firearm as it will provide a reliable hold without slipping or coming undone. It is important to ensure that the knot is correctly tied by testing its strength and stability before using it to secure a firearm.
