Which of these should NOT be used to climb a tree or fence while carrying a firearm?

A gun sling
Your hands and feet
A ladder
A firearm hoist

The correct answer is: A gun sling

Using a gun sling to climb a tree or fence while carrying a firearm is not recommended because it can easily get caught on branches or other objects, causing a potential safety hazard. A gun sling is designed to carry a firearm on your body and not to aid in climbing. It is essential to prioritize safety while handling firearms, so using proper equipment and techniques, such as using your hands and feet, a ladder, or a firearm hoist, is crucial to prevent accidents and ensure safe firearm handling practices.
