About this exam
The Florida Class G Statewide Firearm License examination is part of the qualification process for people seeking authorization to carry a firearm while performing armed security or other eligible protective-service duties. Applicants complete state-required firearms training and demonstrate that they meet the applicable knowledge and proficiency requirements; passing an exam alone does not guarantee a license. Separate eligibility, application, and documentation requirements also apply, so candidates should check current Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) guidance before enrolling or applying.
Florida Class G exam preparation should cover safe firearm handling, handgun parts and controls, handgun types and operating mechanisms, and ammunition identification and selection. Training and qualification also involve practical firearms proficiency, so candidates should treat classroom review and supervised range instruction as complementary parts of preparation. Course details and assessment procedures may vary by approved provider. Review the current state requirements, ask your instructor how the course assesses knowledge and proficiency, and use question-based review to identify topics that need more study.
How to prepare for the Florida Class G exam
- Review firearm safety principles first, then study handgun parts and controls, operating mechanisms, and ammunition identification and selection.
- Use short, timed knowledge-review sessions to find gaps, then revisit the relevant course material rather than relying on memorized answers.
- Confirm current training, application, and qualification requirements with FDACS and your approved instructor; follow their guidance for supervised range preparation.
