    Default AR-15 Rifle Test Quiz

    AR-15 Rifle Test Quiz

    I am semi-retired and I am taking a self-passed and self-taught Firearms Armorers course. I have covered over 25 different firearms in this course and now I am on the AR-15 Rifle course which is my last firearm in the Armorers course.
    I hope to become a part-time light Gunsmith in the future. I am now working part-time with a Gunsmith that has over 40 year’s experience. I have my CHL and my FFL.

    There are many questions covering this firearm and I have answered them to the best of my ability but during my study and research I am having some problems with these quiz questions. Either I am not sure of the correct answer or I have conflicting answers. I need to get 85% of the questions correct.

    So we should help you cheat on a "quiz" when you don't know the subject matter?

    Why not just simply use Google to find your answers? We're certainly not going to help you.

    Did you register on different forums and ask for the answers for the other 24 firearms in your self "taught" course?

    If you simply took one AR apart, you would know most of these answers.
