You remove a firearm from its storage location in your home. How should you handle the firearm?

  1. Immediately point the muzzle in a safe direction

  2. Load it with ammunition to check if it works

  3. Call a friend to show it off

  4. Disassemble it for cleaning

The correct answer is: Immediately point the muzzle in a safe direction

When handling a firearm, safety should always be a top priority. Immediately pointing the muzzle in a safe direction is the correct choice because it ensures that in case of any accidental discharge, there will not be any harm or damage caused. B is incorrect because loading a firearm should only be done in a controlled and safe environment, not while handling it. C is incorrect because showing off firearms to friends can be dangerous and should never be done. D is also incorrect because disassembling a firearm should only be done after ensuring it is unloaded and in a safe location.
