    Got the first ten correct. When question #11 opened it kicked the quiz back to the beginning. Maybe it's just my iPad?

    27 out of 30. Missed the plastic gun question, the one on "Squeaky" Fromme and the one on what did Colt invent. I could have sworn Colt invented the revolver and recall reading about how his inspiration came from the wheel on a ship. I question the so called correct answer on this question.

    I missed the plastic gun question, Columbine, Squeaky and one about a rifle (that I now don't remember.)

    28 of 30. Missed the one about weapons the Chinese used in the 13th century. Should have paid more attention in history class.
