Colorado Hunter Education Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

What is the best practice for crossing a fence while carrying a firearm?

Climb the fence while holding the firearm

Hand the firearm to a companion or place it under the fence

It is important to have full control and awareness of your firearm at all times, especially when crossing a fence. Climbing a fence while holding a firearm can be unstable and increase the risk of accidentally discharging the firearm. Throwing the firearm over the fence also poses a risk of it getting damaged or lost. Unloading the firearm and then crossing with it may seem like a safe option, but it is still best to hand it to a companion or place it under the fence. This ensures that the firearm is not in your possession while you are climbing, reducing the risk of accidents. Overall, the safest and most responsible practice is to entrust a companion or safely place the firearm before crossing a fence.
