MISSION STATEMENTThe American Gunsmithing Institute exists to provide firearms enthusiasts with the knowledge needed to keep theirguns in safe and top notch condition, maximizing their shooting experience and potential in a way that preservesthe art of gunsmithing and ensures that the rights of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.Gene Kelly, PresidentOPPORTUNITIES IN GUNSMITHINGThe Gunsmithing MarketA tremendous market for gunsmiths exists that is often overlooked, with more than 70 to 80 million firearmsowners in the U.S. According to the National Rifle Association (NRA), more than 40% of households own a firearm!These firearms owners have over 500,000 million firearms including all types. The firearms-bearing market includeshunters, sport shooters, law enforcement professionals, collectors and the booming self-defense market.With new, restrictive gun laws making it harder to buy new guns, gun owners need a professional to keep theirguns in good working order. All this adds up to a tremendous opportunity for trained, competent gunsmiths. Infact, there are probably thousands of firearms within a few miles of where you live. If you maintained just a fractionof those, you’d be busier than you could ever imagine.Work for Yourself or For Someone Else Full or Part TimeAfter you become an American Gunsmithing Institute certified Gunsmith, you will have a number of career options. Although most of our students prefer the freedom and financial rewards of working for themselves, you alsohave the option of working for someone else. Either way, as an American Gunsmithing Institute-certified Gunsmith, you’ll be well prepared for whatever career choice you make.Your Own BusinessIf you have ever dreamed of being in business for yourself, you’ll find gunsmithing is the perfect part or full timebusiness. You’ll enjoy the freedom and prestige of working for yourself.Whether your business is part or full time, as a professional gunsmith you will make money almost immediately. Ifyou’re a federal firearms dealer (or would like to be), you can now offer your professional gunsmithing services toanymore who buys a firearm through you! With every gun you sell, you’re creating a new customer.TUITION RATES AND OTHER FEES (correct at time of ing Level 1ProfessionalGunsmithing Level 2Master GunsmithingEnhancedMaster GunsmithingPractical GunsmithingLocksmithingMachine ShopWeldingTuition—CA Sales TaxShippingIncludes(8%)andCourse Materials (if applicable)Handlingand TestingNon-refundable*Student Tuition **Total CostRecoveryNon-CAFund (ifStudentapplicable)**Total CostCA dable 100.00 4,997.00 399.76 60.00 0.00 5,157.00 5,556.76 100.00 6,997.00 559.76 95.00 0.00 7,192.00 7,751.76 100.00 9,997.00 799.76 145.00 0.00 10,242.00 11,041.76 100.00 14,997.00 1,199.76 450.00 0.00 15,547.00 16,746.76 100.00 100.00 100.00 100.00 597.00 997.00 1,197.00 1,297.00 47.76 79.76 95.76 103.76 23.00 26.00 39.00 27.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 720.00 1,123.00 1,336.00 1,424.00 767.76 1,202.76 1,431.76 1,527.76*STRF – 0 for every 1,000 rounded to the nearest 1,000** Estimated charges for the period of attendance and the entire course2The American Gunsmithing Institute is a private proprietary institution approved to operate by the CaliforniaBureau for Private Postsecondary Education.

Learn professional gun repair from master gunsmithing instructorsand earn your gunsmithing certificate in as little as 3 months, bywatching step-by-step video instruction in the privacy of your ownhome or business.Experience the sheer joy of learning real gunsmithing from Master gunsmiths, through this premier trade school levelprogram, fast and easily, all without ever having to quit your job or leave the comfort of your living room and forabout one fifth the cost of attending a campus based school. Through the knowledge you will acquire in this courseyou will be able to completely understand how to repair and customize pistols, revolvers, rifles, shotguns and rimfires.This is our promise to you; when you have finished the professional Gunsmithing course from the American Gunsmithing Institute, you will be able to pick up any firearm, even one you have never seen before, determine what typeof system it uses and with that knowledge be able to analyze the problem and make the appropriate repair. We teachyou how all the systems work, the mystery and confusion will be gone. You will actually understand what the problemis and why you are fixing it in a particular way. Then you will have become a real gunsmith.No other school, campus based or otherwise offers this level of instruction.In fact, serious students graduating from campus based gunsmithing schools have been enrolling in our program because “they didn’t teach me that!.” Why is that the case? because only the American Gunsmithing Institute teachesyou step-by-step how all the major firearm systems work and we are the only Gunsmithing school with Master Gunsmith Bob Dunlap as senior instructor. In addition, because the instruction is delivered step-by-step on video, the instruction is consistent and systematic. The entire course is completely indexed, so you can watch any section as manytimes as you want or need to.You can’t fix it unless you understand how it works!That is why our course is a complete design, function, and repaircourse. The way we show and describe to you how the firearmsmechanisms work, totally illuminates the subject and the fog andmystery is removed. You will now know and possess the how andwhy of firearm design and function and then you are able to understand how to make the appropriate repair. No other Gunsmithing course provides this teaching method or experience.Bob Dunlap has the unique ability to make complex concepts easy to understand.This unique teaching style greatly compresses the time it takes tobecome a professional gunsmith. Bob’s exclusive teaching systemuses one section to build on the next. For example in the pistolsmithing section, we spend 27 plus hours teaching you how allthe various models and systems work. You begin by learning incomprehensive detail about “locked breech single action automatic pistols that use a link system” (like the 1911 .45 Auto).Once you fully understand how those type of mechanisms work,we then focus on teaching you the differences between that andthe cam lock system (Browning Hi-Power, Glock, and others)and so on. Thus providing new information on each model ormajor variation of firearm, building on a foundation and savingyou time by not repeating every detail where they are the same.Therefore we are able to cover many, many, many times the number of guns and systems than any other course ever offered. Inaddition we have created cutaway guns to use as teaching aids for many of the models we cover. This provides you witha unique look “inside” the firearm, to clearly understand how everything works together. This same “building block”teaching method is continued throughout the shotgun, .22 rimfire and centerfire rifles sections of the course. You willalso learn many important elements of gunsmithing including; how-to properly headspace a firearm and why, firing3

pin shape and design, sear, hammer and trigger systems, balancing and adjusting springs,accurizing, barrel replacement and alignment,frame repairs and straightening, timing, feedsystems, and so much more.Would you like to become a competentgunsmith at a fraction of the cost of acampus-based gunsmithing program?HERE’S HOW: If you are like most of ourstudents, you already have a career and family and can’t afford to go to a campus-basedschool and spend 15,000 – 20,000 or moreper year, plus living expenses, lost income and2-3 years of full-time commitment. This couldtotal 50,000 or a lot more!! Even then, manygraduates of other schools have told us thatthey still feel they need The American Gunsmithing Institute’s design, function and repairscourses, because they weren’t taught completedesign, function and repair, so they enroll withus to complete their education. They also useour course as a Master Reference library onvideo, which frequently helps them get out of abind. In addition, The American GunsmithingInstitute courses cover many subjects in bet ter and clearer detail than you would receiveas a student at a brick and mortar college. Plus,The American Gunsmithing Institute coversa whole lot of things that are just not taughtin gunsmithing school at all—like how to besuccessful in the business of gunsmithing. Wealso teach you real world benchwork short-cuts,tricks, tips and techniques.All of the advantages of a campus basedcourse, but faster and with the ability toreview infor mation anytime you want.We designed the American Gunsmithing Institute Professional Gunsmithing Courses onvideo to give you the advantages of a campusbased program with none of the disadvantages.In fact, many of our students say that our videobased course is better because they can “replay” the instructor anytime a difficult projectcomes in. In fact, researchers say that we retainCONTENTSless than 12% of what we learn in a classroom.That’s why we’ve designed our course to be sureevery step is clearly demonstrated and rapidlyavailable for your review when needed.We won’t waste your time . . .In a classroom setting, you usually only get 20to 30 minutes of solid instruction per hour, atbest, after the teacher is finished taking roll,telling a joke, answering stupid questions, andteaching to the level of the slowest person inthe class. The American Gunsmithing Institutecourse is solid information. No wasted time.On top of that you can’t see the details andclose-ups that we show you, even from the veryfirst row in a classroom.Study at your own pace.We remove all of those learning barriers. Withthe American Gunsmithing Institute coursesyou move at your pace with the ability toreview at anytime, and there is no time limitto complete the course. And because the entirecourse is taught on video, note taking is notrequired so you can focus on the instruction.Professional Gunsmithing—Level 1. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5Professional Gunsmithing—Level 2. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6Master Gunsmithing. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7Enhanced Master Gunsmithing. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8Machining. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9Welding. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 11Practical Gunsmithing. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14Locksmithing. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 154
