    Very good program and very versatile for those of us who can't be full time students. You will get your money's worth if you are willing to put in the work.

    AGI has been very good at working with my disabilities from the Marines. I started out cleaning weapons like they said and the benefits paid off three fold. I charge for tearing the weapon down to the last screw and q-tip clean like the Marines. Since I have to put it back together anyway I only charge for the part. I get to learn and improve my polishing techniques, I learn all the different weapons from old to new and how they function, I don't have to buy training weapons to learn from, and people love what I do. The sonic cleaning is a real asset to those weapons you shouldn't take apart and those stubborn places you can't get to. I get faster at disassembly on the repeat types and can now identify common problems when people ask questions. My system gets me a few hundred a week. Auctioneers bring in guns to clean prior to auctions and they've been doubling their money even on the less expensive models. AGI was correct all the way, I still got more to learn and had to expand!

    AGI definitely prepares you to work on guns. Yes, you need to get your own guns to work on to master the teachings. The systems approach prepares you to work on almost any gun. I have three guns in my shop that were not in the course. One, a CZ720, when you take it apart it is largely a Remington fire control group mated with a *********** operating system. Recognized those two systems immediately. The program works!

    The information was great , ever firearm I touched I was able to take it down to a pile of parts and know how to reassemble it to working order . The videos made it understandable to retain the knowledge passed to my by the master gunsmithings. I highly recommend this course, so if you want to work on firearms professional, or just your own collection. It's all here. I plan on getting the rest of the other courses next year after the holidays.

    I grew up next to an eighty year old gunsmith. I was 60 when it clicked that I should use some of the skills I learned as a multi-craft maintenance in a plant for 37 years for my own benefit. Still I thought I wouldn't leave one of my firearms with someone I thought was just starting to practice on. AGI seamed like a perfect! I have often spoke, don't treat the symptom- fix the problem! Design, function and repair sounded like if I didn't learn I would be a hypocrite. I really like the idea of certificates on my shop wall to show I'm not just a fly by night. I still have much to learn and not enough time in the day but I opened two months ago and feel an excitement that learning new things when I was younger that I thought was long gone. It was more expensive but I have it all on DVD and with our poor internet service here I can review when ever I need to. Thanks for all your attained knowledge AGI instructors! Join the ************************ also. Good Stuff. ************

    Purchased the AGI advanced master course material last December. I have finally found time to begin the course work last month! I have found the material to be straight forward, and well prepared. Proud to be a part of the AGI family!
