What is the danger of wearing loose clothing around a firearm?

It can get caught in the trigger
It can cause the firearm to overheat
It can hinder your movement
It can obscure your vision

The correct answer is: It can get caught in the trigger

Loose clothing can pose a danger when around a firearm because it can easily get caught in the trigger, potentially causing an accidental discharge. This is why it's important to wear fitted and close-fitting clothing when handling a firearm. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not directly relate to the specific danger of loose clothing near a firearm. Overheating can be caused by many factors other than clothing, hindering movement may affect accuracy but not safety, and obscured vision can be remedied by adjusting clothing.
