    Training Courses Any courses near Bowling Green, KY?

    If I'm not mistaken rock castle range in park city ky had a precision long range rifle class a while back. Didn't go myself but you could call them and ask when the next class is. Or like he said call k&m.

    Any magical elixirs for removing carbon build up from muzzle?

    Has anyone tried removing the break from the rifle and putting it in a vibratory tumble with media only? Or would that be a stupid idea?

    Gunsmithing Excessive bolt wear ?

    Thanks guys. I'll probably hang on to it and eventually rebarrel it when I've shot out the current barrel. Appreciate the help.

    Gunsmithing Excessive bolt wear ?

    The dented spot on the bottom looks a crappy extractor install but when I rebarrel It i figured I would do a sako or m16 style extractor upgrade. If you look at the same picture you can see a line running from the left lug to right lug. It slowly tapers off to nothing but at the lug you catch...

    Gunsmithing Excessive bolt wear ?

    Hey guys just wondering if the wear on this bolt looks excessive? Rifle is Remington 700 sps in 7mmstw not sure how old the rifle is but it appears to be a factory barreled action in a h s precision stock with oversized bolt knob installed. I found it used at a local gun shop I deal with. The...

    Gunsmithing Gunsmith school?

    Very little manual experience. I can make some things on a lathe or mill. My last project was a Remington 700 bolt disassembly tool that came out really good. The one thing I have no experience with on a lathe is threading. But it's next on my list to learn.

    Gunsmithing Gunsmith school?

    Thanks guys. I really appreciate the input. Right now I'm thinking gunsmith school is not gonna happen. If I pursue the CNC programming I stand to make a lot more money so it seems to be the smartest thing to do. I will probably still get my hands on a lathe/mill and just build things for...

    Gunsmithing Gunsmith school?

    Because most people are stupid. About a year and a half ago a maintenance worker was moving something with a forklift and tipped over the tooling rack for the machine I run. He said quote " it's all right probably about 500$ worth of tools broke." The tooling and engineering guy picked up 6 out...

    Gunsmithing Gunsmith school?

    Exactly. We use renishaw probes in most of our vmc machines and they are not cheap. I've never crashed one but have come really close a time or too. But it's like they say " if you have .001 clearance. You've got a inch". ?

    Gunsmithing Gunsmith school?

    Guys I really appreciate all the input. It has helped put things in perspective. The route I'm leaning towards now is buy the lathe/mill and work on my own personal projects for experience and then if it's a possibility open up a shop later on. For the college tuition cost I can buy a good...

    Gunsmithing Gunsmith school?

    I'm not 100% positive what my end goal is at the moment. I enjoy working on rifles but could care less about shotgun or pistol work. I'm at a point in my career that I can persue the CNC machining and programming and make a lot more money with benefits probably than gunsmithing. Or try my hand...

    Gunsmithing Gunsmith school?

    I have a question for you guys. Is it really worth going to college for 2 years to get a AAS in gunsmithing? I'm a cnc machinist and have been seriously thinking about going to college and looking for a job in a custom shop upon graduation. Or should I consider trying to find a established...
