The content is great and being able to go through the program at my pace is very valuable to me.
It was a very good decision to take courses through AGI. I have retired from a career of 30 years, and now I have a small at home gunsmithing shop. Just enough to keep me busy and working on firearms. I got my FFL and also sell and transfer. I could not have accomplished anything like this, if it was not for AGI.
Couldn’t be more thankful to be associated with a top notch organization like AGI!
This is the most thorough and complete gunsmithing course I have found.
I checked into several Gunsmithing schools before deciding on AGI. I am really pleased that I selected AGI as I love the D, F, & R instructional videos by Bob Dunlap and Ken Brooks. They are informational and walk through many of the specific details and include model specific information necessary to be a quality Gunsmith.
A very good course of training especially for someone starting out. The instruction was comprehensive and at times intense. I’m sure that’s part of the learning process. The course surprised me as to the repairing of firearms I learned a lot about how to make a part versus just buying one. It was a challenge. I would like to say the staff were all great. If I needed help, had a question or just didn’t understand the process. They were there.
I would give these guys 6 stars if I could. If you are serious about wanting to be a professional gunsmith then these courses are a valuable addition to all the other things you need to know. Bob Dunlap has seen more firearm issues that you can shake a stick at and if one listens carefully to everything he has to say on these videos you can be better than the competition. I supplemented these courses by attending a technical college to learn precision machining and another technical college run by the University of South Carolina that has a gunsmithing school. Because of these courses I was better prepared to absorb the vast amount of knowledge thrown at me. Thanks AGI ….. and still, after many years I have to whip out these DVDs to get some good tech info about a particular firearm or operation. Of course that was a much younger Bob Dunlap 🙂
It’s a great opportunity to learn and develop problem solving skills. You can also study and test at your own pace.
I really enjoyed the online course. I Learned a lot and thought the course is well organized and thought out well. I enjoyed listening and learning from Bob Dunlap and the good down to earth and good humor in communication.
I have learned so much about firearms through the programs. The DVD’s and videos are broken down by topic so anyone can understand – it’s a great way to learn gunsmithing!
