What's the more common acts that we use on a daily basis that a regular constable would reasonably assume an experienced Special Constable should know?

I'd appreciate if you all could add to the list.

Section 23 Misuse of drugs act 1971
Section 13/14 Criminal Procedure (Scotland) act 1995
Section 47/49 Criminal law (consolidation) (Scotland) act 1995

I agree, a pretty comprehensive list that should cover most offences you deal with. The only other common one that you might use is:

Drinking in public - S201 - 203 Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973
