What is the correct way to transport a firearm?

  1. Unloaded and locked in the trunk of your vehicle

  2. Hidden under the seat, loaded for easy access

  3. Assembled and within easy reach

  4. Loaded but in a gun case

The correct answer is: Unloaded and locked in the trunk of your vehicle

The correct way to transport a firearm is to have it unloaded and locked in the trunk of your vehicle. This is the safest and most responsible method of transportation to prevent any accidental discharge or unauthorized access to the firearm. Option B is unsafe as it suggests hiding a loaded firearm under the seat for easy access, which is highly dangerous and illegal. Option C is also unsafe as it implies having the firearm assembled and within easy reach, increasing the risk of accidents. Option D is incorrect as it suggests transporting a loaded firearm in a gun case, which is not a secure method of transportation. Therefore, option A is the correct choice as it ensures the firearm is secured and not easily accessible during transport.
