Manitoba Hunter Safety Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

Which of the following defines a firearm's action?

A. It is a tube made of steel that the bullet or shot travels through

B. It supports the stock and the barrel and can be made of one of two separate pieces

C. It contains the parts that load, fire and eject a cartridge or shot shell

The action of a firearm serves as the mechanism to load, fire, and eject a cartridge or shell. Option A is incorrect because it describes the barrel, which the bullet travels through. Option B refers to the stock and barrel, which are not relevant to defining a firearm's action. Option D describes a serial number, which is used for identification purposes but does not define the action. Only option C correctly describes the components and purpose of a firearm's action.
