Question: 1 / 400

How often should you check the chambers of a firearm to ensure they are clear of obstructions?

Before and after using the firearm

Checking for obstructions in the chambers of a firearm is an essential safety measure that should be done regularly. Option B (Only after misfires) is incorrect because you should always check before using a firearm, not just after a misfire. Option C (Once a year during maintenance) is incorrect because firearms should be checked for obstructions before each use, not just once a year during maintenance. Option D (Only when it fails to fire) is incorrect because checking for obstructions should be a regular safety measure, not just done when there is a failure to fire. Therefore, option A (Before and after using the firearm) is the correct answer.
