Manitoba Hunter Safety Practice Exam

After removing your firearm from a vehicle, your first priority should be to make the firearm safe. This includes making sure there is no ammunition in the chamber, removing the magazine, and engaging the safety (if applicable). Option A is incorrect because simply doing nothing can be dangerous and negligent firearm handling. Option B is incorrect as the safety should only be turned off once the firearm is in a safe direction and ready to be fired. Option C is incorrect because sighting in a firearm should only be done at a designated shooting range, not in a vehicle or any other potentially unsafe environment. Therefore, option D is the most important and necessary first step when removing a firearm from a vehicle.
