Wisconsin Hunter's Safety Practice Exam

What are the three basic parts of a firearm?

1. Frame, magazine, chamber

2. Slide, cylinder, barrel

3. Action, stock, and barrel

4. Safety, ejector, bore

The correct answer is: Action, stock, and barrel

Firearms typically consist of three basic parts the action, stock, and barrel. The frame, magazine, and chamber (option A) are common parts of a handgun, while a handgun with a partially rotating cylinder, slide, and barrel (option B) is typically associated with a revolver. The ejector and bore (option D) may be parts of a firearm, but they are not considered the three basic parts.
