What is the proper way to cross a fence or obstacle with a firearm?
By handing your firearm to a companion
By throwing your firearm over the obstacle first
By carrying it with you while you climb
Unloaded and laid on the ground or handing it to someone who has crossed
The correct answer is: Unloaded and laid on the ground or handing it to someone who has crossed
When crossing a fence or obstacle with a firearm, the safest and most responsible option is to unload the firearm and either lay it on the ground or hand it to someone who has already crossed. This ensures that the firearm is not accidentally discharged or dropped while attempting to climb. Option A, handing it to a companion, could potentially put both individuals at risk if the firearm accidentally discharges. Option B, throwing the firearm over the obstacle, could result in the firearm being damaged or landing in an unsafe location. Option C, carrying the firearm while climbing, could also result in the firearm being dropped or causing the climber to lose their balance. Therefore, option D is the best method for safely and responsibly crossing an obstacle with a firearm.
