Colorado Hunter Education Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

What is the first step in cleaning a firearm?

Disassemble the firearm completely

Check that the firearm is unloaded

Before beginning to clean your firearm, it is important to ensure that it is unloaded to avoid any accidents. Disassembling the firearm completely (Option A) should only occur after it has been verified as unloaded. Applying gun cleaning solvent to the bore (Option C) can come later in the cleaning process, and wiping down the firearm with a lubricated cloth (Option D) should be done after all the components have been disassembled and cleaned. Therefore, the first step in cleaning a firearm is to always check that it is unloaded (Option B).
