When is it safe to climb into or out of a tree stand?

  1. When the firearm is unloaded and the safety is on

  2. After checking that the stand is securely attached

  3. While holding onto the firearm

  4. Both A and B

The correct answer is: Both A and B

It is important to follow both safety measures when preparing to climb into or out of a tree stand. While unloading the firearm and engaging the safety is essential for preventing accidents, checking that the stand is securely attached is also necessary to prevent falls. Holding onto the firearm while climbing is not a recommended safety measure as it can increase the risk of mishandling the firearm and causing harm to oneself or others. Therefore, it is safest to follow both A and B before climbing into or out of a tree stand.
