What is the proper method for crossing a fence while carrying a firearm?

Climbing over the fence with the firearm
Handing the firearm to a companion or placing it under the fence while crossing
Throwing the firearm over the fence before crossing
Carrying the firearm horizontally in front of you while climbing

The correct answer is: Handing the firearm to a companion or placing it under the fence while crossing

When crossing a fence, it is important to always practice proper firearm safety. This means that you should never climb over a fence while carrying a loaded firearm, as it increases the risk of accidentally firing the weapon. Option A and D both involve carrying the firearm while climbing, which is dangerous and should be avoided. Option C, throwing the firearm over the fence, is also unsafe as it could result in the firearm being damaged and potentially causing harm. The safest and most proper method is to either hand the firearm to a companion or place it safely under the fence before crossing. This ensures that both you and others around you remain safe while handling the firearm.
