What is the best way to transport a firearm?

1. Unloaded and in a case

2. Unloaded and in the backseat

3. Loaded but with the safety on

4. Disassembled

The correct answer is: Unloaded and in a case

Transporting a firearm is a serious and potentially dangerous matter, and the best and safest way to do so is by following proper protocol. This means transporting the firearm unloaded and in a case. Option B may seem like a viable choice, but it is not recommended as the firearm could easily be accessed by someone else in the vehicle. Option C is also not advised, as the firearm should always be unloaded when not in use. Option D may seem like a safe choice, but it is important to remember that a disassembled firearm can still be considered a firearm and must be transported legally with proper documentation. Therefore, the best and most responsible choice is to transport a firearm unloaded and in a secure case.
