Introduction to Gunsmithing Certificate Program (New for Fall)

This certificate will introduce the novice gunsmith to the hand tools, blueprint reading skills, schematic understanding, basic machine tool operations and the nomenclature used in gunsmithing. Emphasis is placed on safety in the shop environment and the completion of gunsmithing related projects from blueprints using hand and machine tools. Upon completion, students should be able to read and work from blueprints and schematics using hand and basic machine tool setups. During the hands-on shop class, the student will also be working on a final project that will be completed in the second semester of the certificate program.

Students enrolling in this program will be required to undergo a criminal background check before enrolling.
