What is the proper way to pass a firearm to another person?

With the safety off
With the action open and the gun unloaded
Quickly, to minimize handling time
With the muzzle facing the other person for easy grab

The correct answer is: With the action open and the gun unloaded

When passing a firearm to another person, it is important to always prioritize safety. Option A is incorrect because having the safety off increases the risk of accidental discharge. Option C is incorrect because speed should never outweigh safety when handling a firearm. Option D is also incorrect because pointing the muzzle towards another person is extremely dangerous and can lead to serious injuries or death. The safest and proper way to pass a firearm to another person is with the action open and the gun unloaded, ensuring that the firearm is secure and cannot be fired.
