    Patient, kind, encouraging motivators - that is what I needed (and still need) to keep me on this path to gunsmithing. I started late in life, but no matter. It was a prayerfully considered option for developing skills in an area that has been of interest to me since I was much younger, skinny, and had dark hair. AGI has provided me with the mechanism for learning and success. Thank you, AGI. God has blessed this decision and I hope to make it through this before I turn 100 years old but no matter it is a welcomed wonderful journey.

    I was very upset when VA changed to a different school. This school was 100 times better than the one I'm forced to attend. Attend this school if you want a better gunsmith education.

    My journey first stared with the Master Armors Course which led to Level 1 Gunsmith Course. While studying Level 1 I followed the lessons to apply for my FFL and started a gunsmithing business. So far I have successfully utilized the material in the courses to repair all firearms brought into my business.

    AGI has the flexibility to do your studies at your own pace and time but it also has the rigidity of always being available when you need to refer back to a certain subject, topic or firearm. Even years later, they will be there for you.

    The knowledge passed through this program is unmatched and without a doubt worth every *****. My only criticism if i did deep is some videos are dated in quality of picture and sound but with ***'s passing i don't feel there is any way to get it better. His delivery method can not be reproduced. AGI did great work in preserving his work for others to benefit from.

    I am enjoying taking these gun smithing classes. I love the fact I can learn at my own pace, and I can go back and watch the videos over if I did not understand them well enough. I have enjoyed working on my own firearms while I learn.

    There isn't a better school out there. Opened my shop about 6 months ago after completing my Master Gunsmith. Since then I earned my Appraiser Certificate. Business is steadily growing as both a gunsmith and an appraiser. Going to send my son-in-law through the masters course. Am currently the gunsmith for a police department an indoor gun range. Have had over 100 firearms come into the shop and all were different models, rifles, pistols, shotguns, and haven't had a problem diagnosing, repairing, disassembly for reassembly of any of them, thanks to the education received from AGI. The only regret is not pulling the trigger and taking these courses earlier. Planning on taking more courses in the near future to enhance my portfolio.

    Im at **************************** my early phase of my gunsmithing career. I have been in the engineering/design field for over 20 years, and recently learning the gunsmith fundamentals really taught me a whole different approach at looking how Design, Function, and Repair can be implemented. From doing custom architectural to automotive restoration, AGIs gunsmithing fundamentals create essentially the Constitution of Engineering
