[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 2190059, member: 24284"] As you are a Tennessean, Montgomery Community College is close (Troy, N.C.). Trinidad State Jr. College in Trinidad, CO., Colorado School of Trades, Murry State College in Tishomingo, OK., just to name a few. There are several more, just search "Gunsmithing Schools". There's 1 in AZ, and 1 in Cal., another in N.C., and 1 in Pittsburg, PA. Probably some I am forgetting in my list. The Brownells catalog has them listed , too...... A 2yr. , in-resident school is what you want, I'd have little faith in the internet/through the mail schools. Any I mentioned can and will put you on course toward the ACGG (American Custom Gunmakers Guild). Just depends upon your aptitude and how far you might want to take it. Trinidad is probably the only one still teaching stock making, although I don't know that as fact. Lots of different directions a man can go with gunsmithing. It ain't all about barreling an action and putting it into a "drop-in" stock. [/QUOTE]
