Which one of the following practices is critically important when carrying a concealed pistol?

  1. Keeping the safety off

  2. Ensuring the pistol is loaded at all times

  3. Practicing regular maintenance of the pistol

  4. Carrying the pistol in your hand

The correct answer is: Practicing regular maintenance of the pistol

Regular maintenance of a pistol is critically important when carrying a concealed pistol because it ensures the firearm is functioning properly and reduces the risk of malfunctions or failures. Keeping the safety off (option A) is not always safe and can lead to accidental discharges. Ensuring the pistol is loaded at all times (option B) is also not recommended as it can increase the risk of accidental shootings and is not necessary for self-defense purposes. Carrying the pistol in your hand (option D) is unsafe and can be perceived as a threat by others. Therefore, regular maintenance of the pistol is the most important practice for safely carrying a concealed pistol.
