Before crossing a fence with a firearm, you should...?

Unload and case your firearm

The correct answer is: Unload and case your firearm

Before crossing a fence with a firearm, it is essential to unload and case your firearm. This is the correct procedure to ensure safety while maneuvering over an obstacle such as a fence. Unloading the firearm reduces the risk of an accidental discharge, while casing the firearm adds an extra layer of protection by safely securing the weapon during the crossing. It is important to always follow safe firearm handling practices to prevent accidents and ensure the well-being of yourself and others.
