As long as you are over 18, then you should be able to take the HSC test since you will need it to accept a handgun for inter family transfer. I suggest print out the section showing you can indeed receive a handgun from family and the correct PC from here: http://wiki.calgunsfoundation.org/in...Family_Members

Here's some info from the CA DOJ you can print out and take with you:

1. What are the Handgun Safety Certificate (HSC) requirements?
   Prior to purchasing or acquiring a handgun, unless exempted, you must have a valid Handgun Safety Certificate (HSC). You must present your HSC to the firearms dealer at the time you begin a transaction to purchase/acquire a handgun.
   
2. How do I get a Handgun Safety Certificate (HSC)?
   To obtain a Handgun Safety Certificate (HSC) you must score at least 75% (23 correct answers out of 30 questions) on the Handgun Safety Certificate Test covering handgun safety and basic firearms laws. The true/false and multiple choice test is given by Department of Justice Certified Instructors who are generally located at firearms dealerships.
   
3. How much does the Handgun Safety Certificate (HSC) cost?
   The fee for taking the Handgun Safety Certificate Test and obtaining a Handgun Safety Certificate (HSC) is twenty five dollars ($25). The $25 fee entitles you to take the test twice if necessary.
   
4. Are there any minimum qualifications/requirements for a person who wants to take the Handgun Safety Certificate (HSC) test?
   The only requirements are that the Handgun Safety Certificate (HSC) applicant must be at least 18 years of age and must present clear evidence of identity and age by presenting a California Driver's License or California Department of Motor Vehicles Identification Card.
