MGS 2020 Grad here. Can't say enough good things about the course. While I haven't gotten a job as a gunsmith I am the go to guy for my coworkers and friends for firearms work. I've done everything from full restorations to glass bedding and simple fixes like bent or broken firing pins. I still use the reference materials and tools all the time.
Did you learn anything about basic machining? For example do you know how to tram the head of a bridgeport style mill? I'm just curious if they teach stuff like that. Used to be a basic skill for a gunsmith but these days most don't know how to do it. What do you do for a living?
@armorers_wrench MGS did not teach me that. I have a machinist friend who showed me the basics, plus I graduated from a tech school in the mid 80's. Most of my experience is just trail and error on my mill and South Bend 9 inch.
During these troubling times I found these guys,these gun channels to be very valuable. I’m not a real TH-cam fan yes I watch these because they believe in what I do I guess this is my opportunity to say thanks. These podcasts have been very educational so again I say thanks
Not a gun Smith just don't have much money laying around, I made a sight pusher for my 1890 Gewver out of a clamp for a cap on a truck. You use what you can make work
Guns are basic machines with basic mechanical interactions. They aren't rocket science. With a little understanding, some talent, care, safety, and patience... Being a gunsmith is something anyone could do. I looked at SDI and talked to them. Even though I have an A&P mechanics certificate, have taken all the basic required courses, have done practically everything on their projects list except checkering a stock or engraving, and I already own 90% of the gunsmithing tools I'd need for their school... They don't recognize any of that. So, needless to say, they convinced me to save my money, not waste my time, and stick to being the gun hobbyist I've always been. I figured it would be a good job to do part-time, when I'm semi retired... Anyway, I enjoy doing my own work.

Barry was a great guy and we all miss the hell out of him.

I became of the unofficial “go to” guy at the shop but I would like to pursue so formal training. Do they accept GI Bill?

You’re right , boys. Being hooked up to the matrix is not real life . There is no retake or editing . Upload is immediately.
