What should you do before climbing into or out of a tree stand with a firearm?

Unload the firearm
Pull the firearm up with the safety on
Leave the firearm on the ground
Hand the firearm to a companion

The correct answer is: Unload the firearm

Before climbing into or out of a tree stand with a firearm, it is important to unload the firearm to ensure the safety of yourself and those around you. This option is the only one that ensures the firearm is not loaded before entering or exiting the tree stand. Option B and D may also seem like viable options, but there is still a risk of accidentally firing the firearm while in the tree stand. Option C is not a safe choice as it leaves the loaded firearm unattended on the ground, which could be accessed by someone else and potentially lead to accidents. Therefore, it is important to always unload the firearm before climbing into or out of a tree stand to prevent any potential accidents.
