Why Choose Firearm Competency Tests Combo 1?

Combo 1 is designed for learners who need both the legal knowledge component and handgun/revolver preparation.

Combining the two areas allows you to:

• study both competency areas from one package
• revise legal and firearm-specific knowledge together
• identify weak areas through repeated practice
• receive immediate feedback after answering questions
• prepare at your own pace

How the Combo 1 Practice Tests Work

The practice tests include single-answer and multiple-choice questions.

You receive feedback after answering questions so that you can identify areas that may require further study.

The aim is not simply to memorise answers. Use the quizzes to strengthen your understanding of both the legal principles and handgun competency topics covered during accredited firearm training.
