Which firearm carry should you use when you may need to fire quickly?

  1. Shoulder carry

  2. Sling carry

  3. Two handed or ready carry

  4. Elbow carry

The correct answer is: Two handed or ready carry

The best carry to use when you may need to fire quickly is the two handed or ready carry. This option provides the most stability and control over the firearm, allowing for a more accurate and efficient shot. The other three options - shoulder carry, sling carry, and elbow carry - all have their own limitations that can hinder speed and accuracy. Shoulder carry requires more time to bring the firearm up to the shooting position, sling carry can be cumbersome and obstructive, and elbow carry may not provide enough stability for a quick and accurate shot. Therefore, the two handed or ready carry is the most suitable choice when fast shooting is necessary.
