What is considered the safest firearm carrying position?

  1. Two-handed carry

  2. Shoulder carry

  3. Elbow carry

  4. Sling carry

The correct answer is: Two-handed carry

The safest firearm carrying position is the two-handed carry. This method allows for better control and stability of the firearm, reducing the risk of accidents or mishandling. By using both hands to support the firearm, shooters can maintain a secure grip, keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, and have better overall control in case of an unexpected situation. Shoulder carry, elbow carry, and sling carry can be less secure and may result in a greater risk of accidents due to reduced control and stability of the firearm.
