This is directed to all of the gunsmiths out there...

Where did you receive your training? The only place I have been able to find is through a study-at-home company that supplies videos, books, etc. I live in Georgia and the only physical schools are out of state. Any info would be appreciated.

Father (woodworking), neighbor (antique restoration), Army (general), Lassen College (gunsmithing), Pasadena City College (metalworking), on the job (something new every day), NRA Summer Schools (techniques), AGI (specific issues), and friends, associates, and other guys in the business (whatever I could).

Along with that I read and watched everything I could get my hands on, to the point that my library has over 500 books and 100 cd's and dvd's. I still do this (my current read is Shotgun Technica by McIntosh) even though I won't work in the business again.
