When should a firearm be loaded with the action closed?
When you are ready to hunt
When you are cleaning it
When it is in your car or truck
When you are carrying it
The correct answer is: When you are ready to hunt
A firearm should only be loaded with the action closed when the user is ready to hunt. This is because loading a firearm while cleaning it, while it is in a vehicle, or while carrying it can increase the risk of accidental discharge and potential harm to oneself or others. It is important to always handle firearms safely and to only load them when necessary.
