License safety tests

Swiss Smallbore Rifle Club are an accredited Longarm safety test centre. We run regular safety tests throughout the year, where instruction and testing is performed. We have a very high pass rate.

Safety tests are one of a number of essential items required to acquire a shooter's license, the others being:

A Genuine Reason (Eg being a member of Swiss Smallbore Rifle Club for Target Shooting).

A police check - which is done on submission of your license application.

Upon successful completion of the test, you will receive a 'Completion Certificate'. With this certificate, you may proceed with the application of a Firearms Licence. (You will also need a "Genuine Reason" eg membership of a target shooting club for "Target Shooting" or land permission for "Hunting".
