What action should you take if you find a firearm?

  1. Leave it and notify authorities

  2. Sell it to a pawn shop

  3. Take it home as a trophy

  4. Use it to hunt immediately

The correct answer is: Leave it and notify authorities

If you find a firearm, the correct action to take is to leave it where it is and immediately notify the authorities. This is the safest and most responsible choice as it helps prevent any accidents or misuse of the firearm. Leaving the firearm untouched ensures that it remains in a secure location until it can be properly handled by law enforcement or other responsible authorities. Selling it, keeping it as a trophy, or using it to hunt immediately are all unsafe and illegal actions that can lead to dangerous consequences.
