What is the minimum age to obtain a Firearm Safety Certificate in California?

  1. 16 years old

  2. 18 years old

  3. 21 years old

  4. 25 years old

The correct answer is: 18 years old

To obtain a Firearm Safety Certificate in California, an individual must be at least 18 years old. This age requirement ensures that individuals are of legal age to possess firearms and have the maturity to understand the responsibilities that come with firearms ownership. Option A is incorrect because 16 years old is not the minimum age requirement for the FSC. Option C and Option D are also incorrect as individuals do not need to be 21 or 25 years old to obtain the FSC.
