Which part of the firearm loads, fires, and ejects shells or cartridges?

  1. Stock

  2. Barrel

  3. Action

  4. Scope

The correct answer is: Action

The stock is the part of the firearm that a shooter holds, which rests against the shoulder. The barrel is the long, metal tube that the projectile travels through when fired. The scope is an optional accessory used for aiming. Therefore, the correct answer is the action, which is the mechanism responsible for loading ammunition, firing the projectile, and ejecting spent shells or cartridges.
