What type of ammunition can you use in your firearm?

Any ammunition as long as it fits
Only ammunition of the caliber or gauge for which your firearm is chambered
Ammunition that is recommended by a friend
Ammunition that is on sale

The correct answer is: Only ammunition of the caliber or gauge for which your firearm is chambered

Using ammunition of the correct caliber or gauge for your specific firearm is important for safety and proper functioning of the firearm. Option A is incorrect because not all ammunition will fit properly in your firearm and could result in malfunction or even damage to the firearm. Option C is incorrect because just because a friend recommends it does not mean it is the correct ammunition for your firearm. Option D is incorrect because choosing ammunition based on a sale may result in selecting the wrong caliber or gauge for your firearm. It is important to always use the recommended ammunition for your specific firearm to ensure safety and proper functioning.
