Which of the following firearms is most suitable for hunting small game?

  1. .22 caliber rifle

  2. 12 gauge shotgun

  3. .308 rifle

  4. 9mm pistol

The correct answer is: .22 caliber rifle

A .22 caliber rifle would be most suitable for hunting small game because it is a small and precise firearm, making it ideal for hunting small animals such as rabbits or squirrels. The other options, such as the 12 gauge shotgun, .308 rifle, and 9mm pistol, are all larger caliber firearms, which may not be as precise and could cause unnecessary damage to the animal being hunted. Additionally, many states have regulations on the type of firearm that can be used for hunting specific game, so it is important to research and follow these guidelines.
