According to safety guidelines, what should ammunition exactly match when selecting it for a firearm?

  1. Color

  2. Manufacturer

  3. Caliber or gauge specs on the barrel

  4. Weight

The correct answer is: Caliber or gauge specs on the barrel

When selecting ammunition for a firearm, it is important to choose cartridges or shells that match the specified caliber or gauge of the firearm. This ensures proper fit and function of the ammunition in the firearm and helps avoid dangerous malfunctions or accidents. None of the other options (color, manufacturer, weight) are relevant factors in selecting ammunition and could potentially lead to incompatible or unsafe use of a firearm.
