Which part of a firearm loads, fires, and ejects the ammunition?

  1. The action

  2. The stock

  3. The barrel

  4. The trigger guard

The correct answer is: The action

The action is responsible for loading, firing, and ejecting ammunition in a firearm. The stock refers to the handle and grip of the firearm, which is used for aiming and holding the weapon. The barrel refers to the long, metal tube through which the bullet travels when fired. The trigger guard is used to protect the trigger and to prevent accidental firing. While all of these parts are important for the functioning of a firearm, the action is the specific component that controls the loading, firing, and ejection of ammunition.
