What should you do if you cannot remove an obstruction from the barrel of your firearm?

  1. Try to shoot it out

  2. Leave it and continue using the firearm

  3. Take it to a professional gunsmith

  4. Ignore it if the firearm still fires

The correct answer is: Take it to a professional gunsmith

When dealing with a firearm obstruction, it is important to never attempt to shoot it out as this can cause serious harm or damage to the gun. Leaving the obstruction and continuing to use the firearm can also be dangerous and may cause malfunctions or accidents. Ignoring the obstruction may seem like a viable option if the firearm still fires, but this can lead to larger issues in the future. It is always best to take the firearm to a professional gunsmith who has the knowledge and tools to safely remove the obstruction without causing harm to the firearm or yourself.
