  2. Check for barrel obstructions before each use

  3. Modify them for increased firepower

  4. Store them loaded for quick use

The correct answer is: Check for barrel obstructions before each use

Option A It is incorrect as decorating firearms with paint can cause them to become damaged, making them unsafe. Paint can block the mechanics of the firearm, making it difficult or impossible to use properly. Option C: It is incorrect as modifications done by someone without the proper knowledge and skill can cause the firearm to malfunction, making it unsafe to use. Option D: It is incorrect as storing firearms loaded can increase the likelihood of accidental discharge, making it unsafe for the hunter and those around them. It is important to always keep firearms unloaded when not in use.
