[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 1251134, member: 1290"] You could schedule your vacations to align with the NRA 1 to 2 week gunsmithing classes held at some of the regular gunsmith schools. [URL]https://gunsmithing.nra.org/find-a-school/[/URL] If you want to learn machining your local community college may have some classes to get you acquainted with the basics. I would not make any big expenditures until you really figure out what all is going to be involved. There is a lot of legal and financial hoops to jump through before you can do anything for pay. Gunsmithing is very hard to do it as a hobby unless you strictly work on your own. To do it profitably is a whole other thing. It's very time intensive. It seems I spend as much time at a desk as I do in the shop. A wise man once told me. "If you want to wreck a perfectly good hobby, make it your job." I wish I would have known that before I went acting in porn movies. [/QUOTE]
