What is the proper way to carry a firearm when hunting with a group?

With the safety off

With the muzzle pointing forward

In a way that will not point the gun at anyone

When hunting in a group, safety should always be a top priority. This means that the proper way to carry a firearm is in a way that will not point the gun at anyone, regardless of whether the safety is on or off. Option A, having the safety off, can increase the risk of an accidental discharge and should be avoided. Option B, with the muzzle pointing forward, can be dangerous if someone were to walk in front of the muzzle. Option D, with the finger on the trigger, is also not safe as it increases the chances of accidentally pulling the trigger. Therefore, option C is the best and safest way to carry a firearm when hunting with a group.
