    A is additionally wrong because you don’t know the condition of the firearm. If it is not mechanically sound, manipulating it in any way could cause it to discharge in the worst case, or possibly jamming it in an unsafe condition. Best to let someone get it to a safer location before trying anything. There’s likely no especially safe direction to allow a firearm to discharge in a hospital, much less the ED.
