This test covers all 7 firearms of the Certified Cowboy Action Armorer Course. All of the information needed to answer the questions on this test is contained in the course’s videos. The answers to specific questions may NOT be stated word for word by the instructor in the videos. For example, Bob says that one end of a pin is black, the other is silver and either end can go in first. It goes into the slide from top to bottom. The test asks you “Which end you would start in from the top on a blued slide?” The possible answers are: A The black end B The silver end C Neither one; you would order a new pin D All of the above E None of the above Bob didn’t specifically speak the answer to this question, but logic dictates that you would start the silver end in from the top so that the black end would be exposed on the top of the blued slide; so B would be the most correct answer. Choose the answer that you feel makes the most sense; we are NOT trying to trick you.

There are some differences in the 1860 Henry and the Winchester 1873 rifle. Choose the one incorrect answer below. A The Henry has an ejection port cover and the Winchester does not B The trigger spring is on the outside of the Henry and on the inside of the Winchester C There is a loading gate on the Winchester, and there is not a loading gate on the Henry D The barrel and the magazine tube are all one piece on the Henry and two pieces on the Winchester E The side plates on the Winchester are held on by a screw, and the Henry's side plate is dovetailed onto the receiver Q2. Certain .22 rimfire versions of the rifle do not have two-piece firing pins (front and rear); they are just one piece (they are part of the bolt). What can happen with this one-piece type of design? A The hammer misses the rear end of the pin B The firing pin tip is peened toward the bolt face until it jams the forward motion of the firing pin itself C It slam fires D The firing pin channel gets clogged with so much crud from the rimfire cartridge that the firing pin will no longer protrude far enough to hit the rim of the cartridge Q3. On many versions of the 1873, how do you get the magazine band off of the barrel? A They are always a standard dovetail and can be driven straight off, right to left or left to right B They never come off, as they are an integral part of the barrel C Take out the magazine tube and then use a wet hammer and tap it with great force from left to right D Take out the magazine tube, then rotate the magazine band 90 degrees and pull it out Q4. The locking system on the 1873 resembles what pistol? A The Model 1911 B The Browning Hi Power C The Luger D The Beretta Cougar Q5. The toggle system pivots from how many points (or joints)? A Two B Three C Four © 2014 American Gunsmithing Institute Page 1 of 37 CERTIFIED COWBOY ACTION ARMORER COURSE TEST Q6. Why won't the 1873 rifle fire unless the lever is closed all of the way? A Because the hammer safety is not turned off until the lever is closed all of the way B Because the trigger blocking safety blocks the trigger until the lever is closed all of the way C Because the lever being closed all of the way pushes on a pin that disengages the firing pin block safety D The lever does not need to be closed all of the way for the gun to fire; that is why it is the gun that won the West Q7. Besides carrying the gun unloaded (no round in the chamber), what is the safest way to carry the gun? A With the sear in the safe notch of the hammer B With the hammer all of the way down resting on the rear firing pin C With the hammer being held rearward by the sear in the full cock notch of the hammer D With the thumb safety engaged in the safe position Q8.
