Restricted Firearm Test

I have signed up to challenge the restricted firearms test on September 15. I have read the book over twice already and feel pretty comfortable with everything in it. I was just wondering if anyone could give me some tips on stuff i should be really focusing hard on. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I just wrote mine a couple weeks ago. Nothing tricky in the test if you've looked over the book you should be fine, mostly common sense questions. as long as you have a basic understanding of hand guns (ie actions and safeties) you should breeze through it

ACTS and PROVE will most likely be a part of your restricted test.

son and I did the same thing a few years ago challenging both exams on the same night. Storage and transportation requirements were on the exam and were the only item that were cause for concern for me.

Ya I was kind of thinking the storage and transportation would be the trickiest part. Do they have you do a practical part for the exam where you actually handle the firearms? I haven't had much experience handling them so I'm kind of worried about that.

I had to do a practical for it, most of it was common sense stuff and 2 different ways to lock them out. Good Luck
