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

Stock
Action
Barrel
Trigger

The correct answer is: Action

The correct answer is the action. The action of a firearm is the part of the gun that loads, fires, and ejects shells or cartridges. It encompasses all the components responsible for these functions, such as the bolt, breech, firing pin, extractor, and ejector. The stock of a firearm is the part that provides a shooter with a point of contact to the gun and helps stabilize the aim. The barrel is the tube through which the projectile travels after being fired. The trigger is the part that, when pulled, initiates the firing sequence by releasing the hammer or striker.
