What action should be taken if a firearm fails to fire when the trigger is pulled?

  1. Try firing again immediately

  2. Keep the gun pointed in a safe direction and wait before checking

  3. Shake the firearm

  4. Unload and reload the firearm immediately

The correct answer is: Keep the gun pointed in a safe direction and wait before checking

If a firearm fails to fire when the trigger is pulled, it is important to not immediately try firing again as there may be a malfunction or other issue with the gun. Keeping the gun pointed in a safe direction and waiting for a designated period of time before checking is the safest course of action. Shaking the firearm or attempting to unload and reload it immediately could potentially cause further malfunctions or accidents, so it is important to wait and assess the situation before taking any further actions.
