[QUOTE="Fr Mulcahy, post: 4090780, member: 42567"] What's your mechanical background? Can you fix things? If not, gunsmithing school is not the place to start learning. Do you work on your own guns? Handload your own ammo? If not, start with that. Do you shoot competitively? It might help you get in. Can you afford spending about $30,000 while earning nothing for two years? That's about what it will cost. Do you know the average hourly wage for a new graduate? It's less than $25 per hour. Did you know that around 90% of gunsmithing graduates aren't working in the field 5 years later? If you want to get a taste of what it's like, attend next year's summer classes in Tishimingo.
