Question: Which of these actions is consistent with CFSC guidance when carrying an unloaded shotgun to a loading area at a range?

Answer options: ✅ Keep the action open, muzzle pointed in a safe direction, and carry the firearm with the action visible

  • Carry the gun closed and pointed at other people
  • Keep it fully loaded to minimize handling time
  • Use it as a walking stick while loaded

Correct answer: Keep the action open, muzzle pointed in a safe direction, and carry the firearm with the action visible

Explanation: CFSC Student Handbook — 'Transport and range conduct' and 'Basic safe handling' sections: When moving an unloaded firearm to a loading area, keep the action open and the muzzle pointed safely so others can see it is unloaded and reduce risk; never point at people or carry loaded except as range rules may permit under supervision.
