About this app

FSC needed?

You may be a seasoned firearm user and you just need your Firearm Safety Certificate. Or you may be a beginner and need not only to pass DOJ written test, but also to feel confident at any Safe Handling Demonstration and to be safe while handling firearms on a day-to-day basis. Anyway, at AlphaSquared Technologies we strongly believe that everyone must know how to use firearms safely. So, we have created this application to help you with all these matters.

The application contains 300 questions, which help you to master your knowledge by practicing offline (you don't need an Internet connection) and, thus, utilizing your time better.

Our research demonstrated that the most effective preparation is achieved when practice tests contain 10 questions. So, the practice tests are formed to contain 10 questions each (but if you want, you can change it in settings).

Features:
- 300 questions based on Firearm Safety Certificate Study Guide and California Law/Gun Laws in California. IMPORTANT: Questions are going to be even harder than at your written test, so that you will surefire pass your FSC test.
- Randomly generated quizzes or questions one by one.
- Quiz capacity is optimized for fastest tuition (can be changed in Settings though).
- Reviewing included comments for the most complicated/tricky questions
- Practical advice and weapon handling techniques from the best firearms instructors
- Safe Handling Demonstration questions
- Various legal aspects of firearms possession and use
- Long guns and handguns/pistols test questions

Good luck with your FSC Test! We will keep fingers crossed for you!

Ratings and reviews

Overall, quite satisfied with the app. I would have been blind-sighted by the test questions that ask details about ammo type and use, as well as some others that are never mentioned at all in the official CA study guide. My main complaint is that the pictures are so small and can't be enlarged, it is sometimes very hard or impossible to tell which part of a weapon (especially on black pistols) is pointed at or whether a grip is good.

Pretty straightforward app, just kept taking the quizzes for about an hour, got 100% on my FSC Test the same day and it took me 5 minutes to finish. It would be better if it pulled new questions each test, sometimes I would get a majority of the same questions. Some questions in these quizzes were overkill (I had version 2 of the test and none of the picture questions were on it) but it helps to give more knowledge in general which I don't mind, but maybe have these in a separate quiz.

It might be ok as a study tool, but it's rather unprofessionally developed. Many of the questions and answers had grammar and spelling mistakes, and some of them relied on picture references which couldn't be reliably interpreted. Definitely not worth the price.
