Can you pass the FSC test? Take ten questions from the DOJ study guide.

The California Firearm Safety Certificate test is the 30-question written test you must pass before you can buy a firearm in California, and you need 23 correct — 75% — to pass. It is given by a DOJ Certified Instructor, usually at the gun store itself, costs about $25, is untimed, and the certificate it earns is good for five years; miss it and you can retake it. Every question comes from one public document, the California Department of Justice's Firearm Safety Certificate Study Guide, and it covers six plain-English areas: the basic safety rules, safe handling, storage and child access, transportation, California firearm law, and ammunition.

Because the test draws from a single published guide, it is genuinely passable in an evening — the trap is assuming you already know California law from somewhere else. The ten questions below come out of the FSC Practice Test app's 149-question bank, every one of which is traced to a specific chapter of the 2025 edition of that guide; the app's bank was audited question by question against the guide and 23 items that could not be supported by it were removed rather than shipped. Each answer here names the chapter it rests on, so you can check it yourself.

Why we built it

Every California firearm buyer must pass the state FSC test, yet the DOJ publishes only a study guide, not a practice exam. That is an exact thing people search for and cannot find done well. This turns the official subject areas into DMV-style drill-and-review prep so a buyer walks in ready.
