Which part of a firearm is responsible for aiming?

  1. Barrel

  2. Stock

  3. Sight

  4. Trigger

The correct answer is: Sight

The correct answer is C. Sight. The sight on a firearm is the part specifically designed to help the shooter aim accurately at their target. There are different types of sights such as iron sights, scopes, and red dot sights, which all aid in aiming the firearm. The barrel (option A) is responsible for directing the bullet towards the target after it is fired. The stock (option B) is the part of the firearm that is held against the shooter's shoulder and does not directly help in aiming. The trigger (option D) is responsible for initiating the firing sequence of the firearm but is not directly involved in the aiming process.
