To maintain control over your firearm, what should you do?

  1. Let others use it freely

  2. Never leave it unattended

  3. Only use it at shooting ranges

  4. Carry it openly

The correct answer is: Never leave it unattended

To maintain control over your firearm, it is important to never leave it unattended. Leaving a firearm unattended can pose serious safety risks, as it could potentially fall into the wrong hands or be mishandled. Therefore, it is crucial for responsible firearm owners to always keep their firearm within their sight and under their control. The other options are not correct as they do not prioritize maintaining control and ensuring the safety of the firearm.
