Ask the examiner for some time to handle the kit guns before the practical test. He should have no trouble with this. Ask questions if you don't know something. Don't be afraid to talk through the practical test, many revolvers do not have a safety, but you'll be docked points if you fail to attempt to engage the safety. So if you mention to the examiner that there is no safety, you're covered. Also don't forget about the documentation when he asks you to prepare restricted firearms for transportation, put the Registration and Autorization to Transport papers in the case or at least pick them up and mention your intentions to the examiner. The other big mistake people make is PROVEing a firearm safe, then setting it down to load the magazine, then picking the firearm up again without PROVEing it. If the examiner is a hard-AZ$ he will dock points. If you tell him that you are going to set it down and it is still in your direct control (no-one else could easily get it from in front of you) you should be OK, but if you turn away or bend down to pick up a dropped cartridge, it has left your control.

Good for You for getting your restricted, you'll enjoy it. Good Luck!
