What is the first step in cleaning a firearm?

Disassemble the firearm fully
Check that the firearm is unloaded
Apply gun oil to all parts
Wipe the firearm with a damp cloth

The correct answer is: Check that the firearm is unloaded

Before beginning to clean a firearm, it is important to make sure that it is unloaded. This step helps prevent accidents and ensures the safety of the person cleaning the firearm. Option A, disassembling the firearm fully, would be incorrect as it should not be done before ensuring it is unloaded. Option C, applying gun oil to all parts, is also incorrect as it should not be done until after the firearm is cleaned. Option D, wiping the firearm with a damp cloth, would also be incorrect as this is part of the cleaning process, not the first step. Always remember to prioritize safety and make sure the firearm is unloaded before starting to clean it.
