What is the best way to transport firearms safely?

Unloaded and in a case
Loaded but in a holster
Hidden from view
With the safety on

The correct answer is: Unloaded and in a case

Transporting firearms safely is crucial for both the safety of the person carrying the firearm and those around them. Option A is the best way to transport firearms safely because it ensures that the firearm is not loaded and is secured in a case, preventing any accidents from occurring. Option B of transporting a loaded firearm may result in accidental discharge, and is therefore not the safest method. Similarly, option C, hiding the firearm from view, may also result in accidents as it is not securely stored. Option D, having the safety on, may not be enough to prevent accidental discharge. Therefore, option A is the most effective and safest way to transport firearms.
