How should you cross a fence while carrying a firearm?

  1. By tossing the gun over the fence first

  2. Carrying the gun with the safety on

  3. Unloading the gun and passing it to a companion or placing it under the fence

  4. Jumping over the fence while holding the gun

The correct answer is: Unloading the gun and passing it to a companion or placing it under the fence

When crossing a fence with a firearm, it is important to prioritize safety to prevent accidents. Option C, which suggests unloading the gun and passing it to a companion or placing it under the fence, is the correct choice. By unloading the firearm before crossing the fence, you eliminate the risk of accidental discharge. Passing it to a companion or placing it safely under the fence ensures that the gun remains secure while you cross over. This approach guarantees that no one is in danger during the crossing process.
