[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 1365320"] Arguing about depth of knowledge and experience in the trade that has become so broad, serves little purpose. As a "retirement" career path, "gunsmithing" at any level can be frustrating and rewarding. Same as any "job". It's not a way to make much money in retirement. I've been trying to get into Lassen for a couple years now. Not easy to do. In the mean time, I am working my way up from gun "maintainer" (that is all of us), to gun "repairer" and "improver". Not for money. I am smart enough to send out for things I can't do. I have no dilutions that I will be truing R700 actions that win bench rest competitions. I "built" many guns. Two particular required profiling a barrel, threading in a square thread, chambering, stock inletting, extractor modifications, stock inletting, trigger repairs and a bit more. [/QUOTE]
