Best of all, you don’t need any previous experience. You don’t need to be a col-
lege graduate, an expert machinist or even a high school graduate. If you can read
and understand this short introduction and if you enjoy guns and working with your

When you have completed your training, you will have a good knowledge of how to
repair and service a wide variety of guns. You will be able to quickly identify prob-
lems, determine the best method for correcting them (repair, adjust or replace), and
choose which tools and equipment to use to do the most efficient job. In addition,
a very important part of the course tells you how to start a business: how much to
charge, how to get free advertising, where to get parts and supplies, how to organize
your shop and much, much more.

Why Gunsmithing?
Gunsmithing is a great way to
do light work and make good money! Currently, there are
more guns than people in the United States. That would
be 1 weapon for every man, woman and child. The average
gun enthusiast owns several firearms which includes pistols,
shotguns, and rifles of all makes and
models. It is estimated that about 1 in 4
people own firearms with the average firearms owner having 4
guns each.
As a gunsmith, you can work your own hours. You can make it
a full-time career, or a part-time way to earn extra money. It’s
perfect for anybody, including retirees or people who are physically
challenged.
You can start your own gunsmithing business working from your home, a small

shop or even a mobile shop. Or you from everyone who enters your door. It
can work for a gun company, another says you’re an expert who deserves to
