The Gunsmithing Guide

AN INTRODUCTORY GUIDE TO FIREARMS ASSEMBLY, DISASSEMBLY, AND CLEANING Gunsmithing is the routine maintenance, repair, and modification of firearms. Gunsmiths identify worn or defective parts and replace them with new ones. They must be aware of issues specific to certain models and manufacturers in order to resolve them. Sometimes, gunsmiths modify firearms for competitive or other purposes specified by their clients. There are a variety of specialties within the field of gunsmithing. Gunsmiths may specialize in a particular type of firearms, such as shotguns, pistols, and rifles. Those working with handguns may specialize in revolvers or semiautomatic pistols. Gunsmiths may also specialize their work by focusing on a particular manufacturer, such as Colt, Smith & Wesson, Winchester, Glock, Marlin, Springfield Armory, or Beretta. A small number of gunsmiths specialize in antique firearms. Owning a gun also means learning how to maintain it and keep it in tip-top condition. But what if you're a first-timer and aren't really sure how to go about it or what tools to use? No worries! We have you covered.
