FSC Test - CA Firearm Safety

You cannot buy a gun in California until you pass the FSC test. Thirty questions at the dealer counter, twenty three right to pass, and you find out how it went standing in front of a stranger at the counter. This app gets you ready for that. Practice until the real thing feels like a repeat. WHAT YOU ARE WALKING INTO The Firearm Safety Certificate exam is a written test you take at the dealer, given by a DOJ certified instructor. Thirty questions, true or false and multiple choice, 75 percent to pass, and the certificate is good for five years. You need to be 18 and bring your California driver license or state ID. Miss it and the $25 fee covers a second attempt, but not for another 24 hours. That means driving back another day. Most people would rather get it right the first time. Practice exams here run the same shape as the real one, so test day is the second time you have seen it, not the first. WRITTEN LIKE A PERSON WROTE IT A practice question is worse than useless if the answer is wrong. You memorise it, you carry it into the room, and it costs you the one thing you were studying to avoid. So every question here is written in plain English and checked against the California DOJ study guide. No typos, no answer options that contradict each other, no law left sitting at whatever it said years ago. If an answer is marked right, it is right because the state says so. STUDY THE WAY YOU ACTUALLY STUDY Quick rounds when you have five minutes in a parking lot. A full timed mock exam the night before, same length and same pass mark as the real one. A question a day if you booked the appointment weeks out. Get one wrong and it comes back. The app keeps every mistake you make and drills you on those until they stop being mistakes. That is the whole trick to passing a test like this and it takes an evening, not a week. THE PART NOBODY WARNS YOU ABOUT Passing the written test is not the last step. Before the dealer hands the gun over, you have to physically demonstrate safe handling in front of the instructor and sign an affidavit saying you did it. Open the action, check the chamber, keep it pointed somewhere sensible, load and unload. This app walks you through those steps too, so you are not learning them at the counter with a line forming behind you. WHAT IS INSIDE Gun safety rules. Handling and operation. Firearms and children. Storage, transport and ownership. California gun laws and buying a firearm. The same five areas the state groups its questions into, plus a handbook you can read straight through if you would rather learn it than drill it. Area by area stats show you where you are weak, so you stop wasting time on the parts you already know. PRICE The first three topics are free. No account, no trial, no card. If it works for you, one payment unlocks the rest, forever. One payment. Not weekly. You take this test once every five years, so paying every week for it never made sense. No ads. Works offline. Nothing to sign up for. Good luck at the counter. This app is study material, not legal advice, and it is not affiliated with the California Department of Justice.
