California Firearm Safety Certificate (FSC) Practice Exam

How often must the Firearm Safety Certificate be renewed?

1. Every year

2. Every 3 years

3. Every 5 years

4. It does not expire

The correct answer is: Every 5 years

The Firearm Safety Certificate is a qualification required in California to purchase a firearm. It is valid for a certain amount of time, after which it must be renewed to remain valid. Option A is incorrect because it requires too frequent of a renewal, whereas option B is incorrect because it still requires a renewal sooner than the correct answer. Option D is incorrect because although some certificates may not expire, the Firearm Safety Certificate does expire after a certain number of years. Therefore, option C is the correct answer as it accurately indicates the proper amount of time between renewals.
