A note from the President . . .
We are dedicated to preserving and distributing this gunsmithing knowledge for current and future generations.
Our gunsmithing courses are courses you will want and need to watch again and again. If a picture is worth
a thousand words then these courses are precious beyond words. We employ cutaway
firearms to give you a look inside and a clear understanding of exactly how your gun functions. You will possess
the most authoritative information available on the design, function, maintenance and repair of your particular
model of firearm, with the ease of understanding that can only come from watching live action video. Absolutely
packed with information not available anywhere else! Owning any of these courses is like having the country's best gunsmithing
instructors available whenever you need them.
100% money back guarantee on ANY video course for up to 1 full year! Why? Quite honestly, we
aren’t afraid to let you watch our courses and evaluate them for yourself because we know that we deliver high quality content. We
pack every video chock full of valuable information that you just can’t get anywhere else, knowing that you are going to be very
satisfied and enjoy your investment. To remove all doubt we are willing to take 100% of the risk. We do that because we are not about
just selling you a video course. We are about working together to preserve the Gunsmithing Arts and all of our Personal Freedoms
through every course we design and produce. Our goal is to build lifetime relationships and referrals and you can’t do
that by producing cheesy, low content value videos. We hold ourselves to a higher standard and I personally
guarantee everything we produce.
What you can always expect from us: in every course we produce we show you, in detailed step-by-step fashion,
what you really need to know to successfully complete your project or repair. We use real firearm cut-aways to show
you the inner hidden workings and provide close-ups that you would never see in a classroom. We focus on providing
you value with real-world instruction, TEACHING you the WHY, HOW and WHAT TO DO by making sure
every presentation is clear and leads you down the road to success. So order the courses you are interested in
with total confidence, knowing that we've "Got your back."
Sincerely, Gene Kelly, President

Currently there is a HUGE Demand for Gunsmiths.
Millions of guns need fixing. Most of the old-time gunsmiths have
retired and haven’t been replaced because previously there wasn’t a
cost effective way to quickly train individuals to become gunsmiths and
help them make money fast. This has created a chronic shortage and a
huge opportunity for you.
Gunsmithing is a recession-proof business. Even in tough times people
spend money to get their guns repaired or professionally cleaned. It’s a
lot cheaper than buying a new one and they still want and need them
for hunting and self defense. You can even work part-time right from
your home. Your one time investment in the course could provide you
with a lifetime of income and opportunity.
Here’s how A.G.I.’s Professional Gunsmithing Course
changed Robert Briskey’s life: “Within one short year I
opened up my own firearms repair and custom refinishing shop.
My business is exceeding my dreams. The freedom I enjoy being
self-employed is priceless. Without the opportunity that AGI’s course
offered, my dream would be just that, a dream.”
Robert T. Briskey, Battle Hen Armory
You don’t have to wait to start gunsmithing! It only takes a relatively
small investment to get started. As soon as you begin watching the
videos you will be able to start making repairs. Anytime you run into a
problem, you just pop in the DVD on the subject or model gun that
you need information on and do a quick review.
Couldn't get a better recommendation:
“I made the mistake of taking another cheaper gunsmithing
course. I knew I made a mistake when I read in one of my
lesson books that for further instructional help, go to the
AGI website and get a DVD on the subject. When other
schools are giving YOU that kind of acknowledgement,
then you have to be the best." Gordon Fisher

DVD
Experience the sheer joy of learning real gunsmithing from Master gunsmiths, through this premier, trade school level
program, fast and easily, all without ever having to quit your job or leave the comfort of your living room and for about one fifth the
cost of attending a campus based school. Through the knowledge you will acquire in this course you 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 AGI, you will be able to pick up any
firearm, even one you have never seen before, determine what type of system it uses and with that knowledge be able to analyze the
problem and make the appropriate repair. We teach you how all the systems work, the mystery and confusion will be gone. You will
actually understand what the problem is and why you are fixing it in a particular way. 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 AGI teaches you 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 many times 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 repair course. The way we show and describe to
you how the firearms mechanisms work, totally illuminates the
subject and the fog and mystery is removed. You will now know
and possess the how and why 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 to become a
professional gunsmith. Bob’s exclusive teaching system uses one
section to build on the next. For example in the pistolsmithing
section, we spend 27 plus hours teaching you how all the
various models and systems work. You begin by learning in
comprehensive 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 and the cam
lock system (Browning Hi-Power, Glock, and others) and so on. Thus
providing new information on each model or major variation of firearm,
4

www.AmericanGunsmithingInstitute.net
building on a foundation and saving you 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. In addition we have created cutaway guns to use as teaching
aids for many of the models we cover. This provides you with a 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 will also learn many important elements of gunsmithing
including; how-to properly headspace a firearm and why, firing pin shape
and design, sear, hammer and trigger systems, balancing and adjusting springs, accurizing, barrel
replacement and alignment, frame repairs and straightening, timing, feed systems, and so much more.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO BECOME A COMPETENT GUNSMITH AT A FRACTION OF THE COST OF A
CAMPUS-BASED GUNSMITHING PROGRAM?
HERE'S HOW: If you are like most of our students, you already have a career and family and can’t afford
to go to a campus-based school and spend $15,000 – $20,000 or more per year, plus living expenses,
lost income and 2-3 years of full-time commitment. This could total $50,000 or a lot more!! Even then, many graduates of other
schools have told us that they still feel they need our design, function and repairs courses, because they weren’t taught
complete design, function and repair. They enroll with us to complete their education. They also use our courses as a Master
Reference library on video, which frequently helps them get out of a bind. In addition, our courses cover many subjects in
better and clearer detail than you would receive as a student at a brick and mortar college. Plus, the American Gunsmithing
Institute covers a whole lot of things that are just not taught in gunsmithing schools at all—like how to be successful in the
business of gunsmithing. We also teach you real world benchwork short-cuts, tricks, tips and techniques.
ALL OF THE ADVANTAGES OF A CAMPUS BASED COURSE, BUT FASTER AND WITH THE ABILITY TO REVIEW
INFORMATION ANYTIME YOU WANT. We designed the American Gunsmithing Institute's Professional Gunsmithing Course
on video to give you the advantages of a campus-based program with none of the disadvantages. In fact, many of our students
say that our video based course is better because they can “replay” the instructor anytime a
difficult project comes in. In fact, researchers say that we retain less than 12% of what we learn in
a classroom. That’s why we’ve designed our course to be sure every step is clearly demonstrated
and rapidly available for your review when needed.
WE WON’T WASTE YOUR TIME . . . In a classroom setting, you usually only get 20 to 30 minutes of solid instruction per hour, at best, after the teacher is finished taking roll, telling a joke,
answering questions, and teaching to the level of the slowest person in the class. This
course is solid information. No wasted time. On top of that you just can’t see the details
and close-ups that we show you, even from the very first row in a classroom.
STUDY AT YOUR OWN PACE. We remove all of those learning barriers. With the
American Gunsmithing Institute's courses you move at your own pace with the ability to
review at anytime. There is no time limit to complete the course. And because the entire
course is taught on video, note taking is not required so you can focus on the instruction.
HOW FAR WILL YOU TAKE YOUR NEW GUNSMITHING CAREER?
Hit the ground running with the Complete Turn-key Gunsmithing Package or
take it one step at a time beginning with Level One and advance from there.
It's your choice - just get started on your new career today!

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT
FIREARMS DESIGN, FUNCTION AND REPAIR TO
START A GUNSMITHING CAREER. The course starts you off with a five hour introduction to the world of
Gunsmithing learning about; special gunsmithing tools and how to use them, filing and stoning techniques, proper
use of hand tools, firearms parts and proper terminology and descriptions, locking systems, action types, feed
mechanisms, basic ballistics, cartridges and powders, different types and pressures, cartridge evolution, primer and
bullet types and so much more. Now you are prepared to learn the design, function and repair of pistols,
revolvers, rifles, shotguns and rimfires.
Level One Professional Gunsmithing Course
As you watch the DVDs, you will find that the Professional Gunsmithing Course is divided into four major sections:
pistols and revolvers, shotguns, rifles, and rimfires. It is our belief that you can’t “fix it” unless you really
understand how “it” works. Many so called “gunsmiths” simply “throw new parts” at a problem until they hope it
is fixed. We teach the why and the how. When you repair a gun, you’ll know you really fixed it.
COMPLETE TESTING AND CERTIFICATE: As you complete the introduction to gunsmithing and each of the four
sections (pistols and revolvers, shotguns, rifles, and rimfires) you will take a written multi-choice examination to test
your knowledge. If you pass you will receive a handsome framed personalized certificate for that portion of the
course. A certificate is given for each section. This certificate is more than a badge of honor. Many companies will
allow our graduates’ access to restricted parts. In addition to the 108 hours of Design, Function and Repair
Instruction you receive with the Professional Level One course you will also get these additional bonuses:
• Gunsmithing FFL (Federal Firearms License) starter kit.
How-to Audio CD, application starter kit, forms, tags and
book. Everything you need to know to get your FFL.
• One Year of Silver Level Membership in the
Gun Club of America with GunTech Monthly

general machine shop knowledge and how to operate a
mill and lathe.
In this course you’ll learn how to completely set up and
operate the lathe, vertical mill and a host of other shop
equipment. Containing over 30 hours of video instruction,
Master Riflesmith and Machinist Darrell Holland will instruct
you in everything you need to know to be able to walk up
to any one of these machines and start making parts. This is
an extremely valuable addition to any gunsmith’s set of

Possess the knowledge of a
MASTER MACHINIST!
The most comprehensive and easy to understand instruction ever
offered on the proper set up and use of the lathe, mill and
machine shop equipment - GUARANTEED!
YOU can acquire the knowledge to become a
machinist in a matter of hours!
Is it really possible? Can you learn how to operate a lathe by just watching our courses? Yes!
In fact, it will only take a few hours before you can start turning out your first quality parts.
Instructor Darrell Holland breaks down the information into its simplest components. Each
technique he teaches prepares you for the next skill level.
"After watching the courses I am 100% satisfied. I could not take
enough time off from work to go to school to learn machining. I am a
beginner. It would have taken me years to learn what these videos
taught me." John D. McDougal, Newport, AR
Become an Expert on the Lathe Now YOU have a front row seat in the classroom of the future! Our writers and
producers have put together a professional training course using personalized DVD video instruction. With our
comprehensive course outline, specialized production techniques, and knowledgeable instructors, you will receive detailed
instruction you could NEVER get in the classroom. Our course will take you from the most basic machining skills right
through the tricks, tips, and techniques of master machinists.
"Very detailed and straight forward demonstration of machining fundamentals. Darrell Holland’s experience, as demonstrated
on these videos, is going to save me a lot of time and frustration. Excellent Job!" James T. Jensen, Berea, KY
We teach you EVERYTHING you need to know about the lathe: what to look for if you are buying one,
the function of each part of the machine, how to set it up, grinding your own tool bits, complete
facing, turning and boring operations including turning precision diameters and tapers, boring holes
and turning threads (internal AND external), knurling, finishing, and more.
Darrell doesn't just show you how to operate the machine, he teaches you the core knowledge
required so you really UNDERSTAND what you are doing. How to select the proper materials for the application and
calculate turning speeds and feed rates are covered as well as measuring tools and measuring techniques.
"I had purchased my lathe before I ordered this course. The lathe came with just a parts list and
recommended fluids for lube. I had thousands of dollars tied up and did not know how to use it. I have
ordered other how-to videos from AGI before, so I knew you guys were the best choice for me. After
watching the lathe videos I had no trouble at all setting up my lathe and turning out all types of work.
I could not have done this without AGI." Douglas Patrick, Laurel, DE
Master the Milling Machine: The Milling Course is just as thorough and complete as the lathe course. Once again, Darrell
comes through by giving you unique insight into the capabilities and features of the vertical mill. He tells you exactly what to
look for when purchasing a new or used mill as well as tramming the head, fixturing, X,Y & Z axis movements, locating
centers, locating edges, types of cutters, cutting speeds and fluids, chip load, material selection, fly-cutting, climb-cutting,
precision hole-drilling, angle cuts and boring. AND . . . he goes into detail on how to use edge finders, collets, chucks,
clamping tools, digital readouts, measuring tools, specialty cutters, rotary tables, indexers and much more.

"The Lathe Course was superb, and since the Milling Course is even better, I am at a
loss for a term of recognition higher than superb. I learned more tricks and insights
from these courses than 35 years of hands-on has taught me. Just his tips for tramming
in the head quickly and easily were worth the cost of the course to me. Darrell is not
only a master machinist and gunsmith, but a natural instructor as well. Thanks for
another great course!" Steve Bird Sr., Failure Analysis Engineer, San Jose, CA
Climb into Darrell's Head Just knowing the techniques isn't enough, we give you insight
into the way a Master Machinist like Darrell thinks. In the section on "Making a Part:
Start to Finish," Darrell takes you through the thought process of how you approach
making a part. He shows you how to think through the entire process in your mind
before you start the machine and the differences between machining a single part and
setting up for a production run. It's the sharing of this kind of knowledge and information that sets us apart from any other course or institute.
Darrell covers (in his usual detail) how to design and set up your shop, buy materials and perform heat treating as
well as how to use the belt sander, drill press, blast cabinet, cut-off saw, pedestal grinder, surface grinder and more.
The detailed tricks and techniques he gives you will save you loads of time and make you more money (like how to
remove broken screws and resharpen drill bits)!
Darrell then rounds out the course by demonstrating the abilities and limitations of the less expensive Mill/Drill
combination machines that are now available. He gives you his own personal recommendations of when and how
they can be used effectively and if that wasn't enough . . . BONUS VIDEOS: Two more instructors will show you
how to set up and operate an automotive-cylinder boring machine and an automotive brake lathe. Armed with this
exclusive information you could start doing contract work for a local garage!
"I have watched the entire course 4 times. As usual with AGI, the quality of the instruction is first rate. Darrell
Holland is a machinist who not only knows his subject, but is also able to present the material in an interesting and
captivating way for the student machinist. I found the additional videos dealing with automotive machining to be an
unexpected, but appreciated bonus." Glendall H. Epperson, Epperson Gunsmithing
Pass the Ultimate Test! So you can prove you have learned the material completely, we have two levels of
optional testing. The first level test is Machine Shop Theory. We will provide you with a multiple choice written test
that you complete and send back to us. If you pass we will provide you with a personalized Machine Shop Theory

Having the ability to weld can make the
difference between being a successful
gunsmith or not. Many times when you are
gunsmithing you will encounter a firearm that has a worn or
broken part which is expensive, hard to get, or even no longer
available. Knowing how to repair the existing part or being able to
create a new one by welding is often your best solution.
This course covers everything from history to
set-up, to safety, to how to make the perfect weld. It
enables you to understand for the first time how to control the molten
puddle, by showing you close-ups from just inches away. You will feel like you are right in
the middle of the Molten Puddle!
If you have ever tried to weld and have been frustrated by the results, this course is for you!!
This is a new professional level course and is of the same high content value and quality you
have come to expect from The American Gunsmithing Institute. We cover the entire spectrum
of welding, set-up and equipment. We also teach you safety, metal types and welding terminology that will make you act and sound like a pro. We show how to make the perfect weld and tips to help you to practice and
improve. There is no other course that goes into this amount of depth and takes you right up into the molten metal so
that you can SEE how a weld is made. This course will take an absolute novice and have them making professional looking
welds in a matter of minutes. Even experienced welders will learn new tricks of the trade.
Our Complete Welding Course is the most comprehensive, video-based, welding course ever produced. It contains 22+ hours
of detailed information that covers every aspect of welding from equipment and techniques, to symbols and procedures. Each
part is presented in an easy-to-understand format, step-by-step, using close-ups that make a 1/2 inch molten puddle fill your
television screen. Learning to weld has never been this easy. As you progress through the course, your instructor keeps you
well grounded in the practical world with knowledge and insights gained through 40
years of welding training and experience.
History: The course begins with the history of welding (which actually started at the
end of the Stone Age). Your instructor, Bob Rizzetto takes you step-by-step through
this fascinating history in order to show you the basics of what welding actually is and
to chronicle the developments and breakthroughs that brought us the time-tested
methods and amazing equipment that make modern welding truly state-of-the-art.
Safety: Welding offers too many ways to injure yourself for us to overlook safety. We
cover all the safety gear and procedures in our usual detail so you can use the right
safety gear and know the correct procedures to protect yourself and others in every situation. But that’s not all. Mr. Rizzetto
also teaches you a special technique that keeps you in a safe state-of-mind in order prevent accidents from happening when you
are the most vulnerable (under the hood). With safety under our belt, we move on to the basics of gas-welding.
14
1-800-797-0867
•
Gas Welding: We use gas welding as the foundation for the course because
with gas welding it’s easier to see and control the weld puddle and the
gas-welding process builds the hand/eye coordination necessary to become
proficient at ANY type of welding.
We begin with tank set-up and how to light the torch. We pay a visit to the
local welding supply to learn about the tanks, gases and proper operating
procedures. Next, we show you how to light the torch, the three types of
flames and their uses. Then, Mr.
Rizzetto shows you the puddle, the
heart of ALL welding (no matter what
type of equipment is used). He teaches you everything you need to know in
order to make and control the weld puddle. We don’t just show you the
correct way to weld, we also demonstrate what happens when the puddle is
too hot, too cold, moves too fast or to slow and much more. As we practice,
we show you: how to tack your work pieces, the basic types of weld joints, the
four welding positions (flat, horizontal, vertical and overhead), rods, tips and
how to make the proper rod/tip selection based on the thickness of the
material, type of metal, etc. We also show the proper way to complete a weld
using both single and multiple passes. By the time we wrap up gas-welding we have covered all the basics you need in
order to become proficient at ALL types of welding.
Gas Cutting: In this section we learn how to use the gas rig to cut metal. Thick, thin, round, square, you name it, Bob
shows you how to cut it properly. We cover all the details of equipment selection and set up as well as the rules you
must follow in order to achieve a proper cut. We demonstrate add-on equipment that lets you make cleaner, faster
cuts, circular cuts and more and, we show you how to use special tips to “gouge” and “scarf” away material, remove
rivets and brackets and even remove a nut from a bolt without damaging the bolt.
Plasma Cutting: Once you’ve mastered cutting with gas, we show you the set-up and operation of a plasma cutter.
It is one amazing tool not just because it is fast and clean, but because you can also cut non-ferrous metals (like
aluminum, stainless, copper, brass, etc)! Bob covers all the particulars for making good cuts with a plasma machine.
MIG Welding: Next we cover MIG (wire) welding. In order to lay a good foundation for welding with electricity, Bob
goes over the basics of: electricity, the electric circuit and safety. Next we cover the different types of MIG equipment.
We take you step-by-step through all the details of equipment set-up and operation. From assembling the machine
and loading wire, to cleaning and replacing nozzles, tips and more, we cover it all. Then (just as with gas-welding), we
begin teaching you how to control the equipment settings and the puddle in
order to be able to tack parts and weld thin or thick materials using single and
multiple passes. As he demonstrates these techniques, Mr. Rizzetto is also
showing you (once again) the different types of weld joints and positions and
he continues to give you tips and pointers that will help you build your skills
faster and to the highest level possible. He takes you through the
MIG-welding process using both solid and fluxcore wire.
Arc Welding: Since you’ve learned the basics with gas welding and moved on
to hone those skills with MIG welding, you are ready to tackle the challenges
offered by traditional “stick” welding. Again, we show all types of arc-welding
equipment as well as how to properly set-up and operate it. Nothing is left
out. We teach you all about rods, rod storage and flux coatings showing you
how to choose the correct rod for each situation. We cover how to: “size”
your cables to your welder, how to make your set-up so you avoid common
mistakes that can ruin your equipment and your workpiece, how to determine
the correct settings for your equipment and we take you close-up to show you how the weld puddle looks and acts with
flux covering it. We also cover the proper techniques for removing slag and grinding welds to prepare them for
inspection or multiple passes. This is the time when what you’ve learned about porosity really comes into play as we
teach you how to find and properly repair, porous welds. As we teach all of this we continue to demonstrate the

The first ever complete welding course with Step-by-Step instruction in
all aspects of welding, including: Gas (Oxy-acetylene), Stick (flux
coated Arc Welding), MIG (wire feed) and TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas)
different types of weld joints and positions. We also use arc welding to teach the
proper techniques and fixturing necessary for the specialized job of pipe welding.
In each section of the course, Mr. Rizzetto gives tips, tricks and actual accounts
from his personal experience that apply to the specific skills, techniques and
processes that he is teaching.
TIG Welding: Once you’ve learned how to arc weld, you are ready for TIG
welding. TIG welding not only allows you to weld non-ferrous metals such as
aluminum and stainless steel, it also allows you to make extremely fine welds on
very thin metals or repair very small parts by re-joining them. Part of the finesse
of TIG welding is learning how to use the features and controls of the TIG
machine to enhance the quality and speed of your welds. Bob unravels the confusion and mystery of the many settings found on advanced TIG machines by explaining and demonstrating each feature. He leaves no stone unturned as he shows you
how to refine your skills and adapt them, whether you are welding thin stainless steel or
cast aluminum. Aluminum and stainless are covered in their own sections where we
teach you the systems used to “grade” the metals according to hardness, tensile
strength, etc. so that you are able to make the right choice when choosing metals for a
project or correctly identify what type of metal a particular workpiece is made from
before you weld on it. In addition, Bob gives you special tips just for welding aluminum
since welding on cast-aluminum parts has different parameters than extruded parts.
Welding Small Parts: If that isn’t enough, we have a special section on TIG welding
that focuses solely on welding small parts for gunsmithing. Although the parts and situations we demonstrate are gunsmithing
related, this section is invaluable to anyone who needs to construct, modify or repair tiny parts of any kind.
Welding Symbols: In this section Bob covers the AWS Welding Symbol System, what each part represents and how to read it.
He also teaches you the graphic symbols used in prints and drawings to represent the types of joints, welds and processes.
Understanding these symbols and the AWS Symbol System and all its parts is an important requirement in the process of
becoming a AWS certified welder. With his usual simplicity and sense of humor, Bob makes what seems complicated, easy to
follow. Since it’s on DVD, if you forget what a particular symbol means you can go back and review whenever necessary. Once
you’ve learned the symbols, we then show a set of prints for an actual welding job and see how the symbols are put into
practical use. Then we go outside the contractor’s office and look at the actual pieces for the same project we just saw on the
prints. This really ties together the correlation between the drawings and the actual welding project.
Shop Tour: Next, Mr. Rizzetto takes us on a tour of an actual welding “job-shop,” where everything from fabrication to repairs
is done on a daily basis. He shows us the layout of equipment and work areas as well as the specific pieces of equipment and
how each is used in this ever-changing environment. After this tour you have come full-circle from learning the basic skills and
procedures, to seeing them put to use in the real world.
Welding Projects: In this section Bob lets you put your skills into use building actual projects that are invaluable to you as you
begin using your newfound welding skills. He uses the process of building the project to teach you how to do simple,
appropriate, drawings for any project you need to build (for yourself or a customer). As always, Bob’s methods and techniques
are grounded in the real world where things need to be practical in order to be successful. As he takes you through each
project step-by-step, everything you have learned in the course is put into practice so you can make the final connection
between the skills and their applications. In the end, you come away with new skills that will last a lifetime and a useful welding
bench with accessories! Not to mention, the countless, invaluable tips and insights that Mr. Rizzetto shares from a lifetime of
professional welding experience.

Here’s what our students are saying about
the Complete Welding Course . . .
“I presently have
several welding
processes available
in my shop for the
almost daily
soldering, brazing jig
& fixture making,
tool building and
maintenance operations that are necessary for a custom shop. I have
never really understood those processes until viewing your new
Professional Welding Course. I bought the welding course, secure in
the knowledge that I would receive the same superb training I that I
have come to expect from A.G.I. My expectations have been
exceeded! After 35 years of being disappointed with my welding
skills I feel that I have finally found the knowledge that I need to
improve my welding to a point on par with my other shop skills!”
Gary Iames, South Lake Tahoe, CA
I received the welding course as part of the Master
Gunsmithing Course. I decide to review this first because I
have an extensive background in welding; I took classes
starting in high school through college and have been doing
welding off and on ever since. I own my own business and I
have fabricated many items for my business instead of
purchasing similar items from the factory, etc. I have used my
skills to make necessary repairs on equipment, etc.
throughout the last 25 years. I thought I knew a lot about
welding but I quickly realized I didn’t. What an excellent
course! I wish I’d had this years ago. Even though I have
experience, your course taught me things that will help me
tremendously in every facet of welding. I would highly
recommend this course to all those who are serious about
learning proper welding procedures. Keep up the good work.
I am now looking forward to completing the rest of the
gunsmithing, lathe and milling courses.
Ronald Stephenson, Phillipsburg, MT
I recently purchased your Welding Course, and was Very Impressed. I
don’t have much prior experience welding; other than shop class in
high school. I work as a Federal Officer and bought the welding
course mainly to learn an extra trade skill and to use on my small
ranchette. I plan to use these skills in the gunsmithing shop that I am
acquiring. I also have a brother-in-law with a welding business that
I hope to be able to help out when he’s overwhelmed with orders.
I thought the welding course was extremely well done. The instructor presenting each segment was highly qualified with many years of
experience and good presentation skills. I really liked the close up
views of the welding techniques. It really made it easy to understand
and showed ways to avoid mistakes. For those considering investing
in this course I highly recommend it. There’s something to learn for
everyone, from novice to professional.
Gregory E. Moore, Miami, FL
I want to Thank You for an excellent course. I have been a
machinist for about 12 years now, but I’ve never been good at
welding. In fact I didn’t even know you could weld with

•
oxy/acetylene, I thought it was just for brazing. That’s why I
always had someone else do my welding. I would try it on my
own stuff if it wasn’t important but I never had much
confidence in it. I still need more practice, but now when I do
practice I know what I’m looking at and my welds have
improved dramatically. I would definitely recommend this
course to anyone that’s interested. Thanks, you guys did a
great job. Brent Brennke, Harlan, IN
I have had your professional welding course for several months and
have been practicing all kind of different welding techniques. I have
Oxy-Acetylene, Stick and MIG welders. I have had outstanding
results after viewing the course. As a retired firefighter who has
great interest in metal working, the professional machine shop
course and your professional welding course are both excellent!
Myron Brugger, Northglenn, CO
I have purchase many of the AGI video courses, including the
gunsmithing and machining courses. All are of the highest standards
and extremely informative. This welding course meets and exceeds
the standards set by previous AGI courses. I have welded before, but
this course explains things like never before. Thanks for another
winner. Larry Treen, New Florence, MO.
This course has been a very smart purchase and I would
suggest that anyone that wants to learn how to weld get this
course! It will teach you all that you need to know about how
to do the job right. It has showed and help me out a lot.
Chris Marks
“I am a professional pilot for a major airline and have a small
firearms business on the side. Being a pilot, my work schedule varies
from week to week, so taking a classroom welding course was not an
option for me. When AGI announced that a welding course was being
developed, I was excited and one of the first to enroll. If the welding
course was on par with the other AGI courses I had, it was going to
be good. Well, I just finished reviewing the course and it’s Fantastic.
I have tried gas and arc welding many times in the past. One thing
for certain . . . I had no idea of what I was doing. And as for MIG
and TIG; What’s That?!?!
I read all the manuals on gas and arc welding but I could not
convert all of the reading and photos to practical application. You
can’t just read about welding and expect to get good results; you
need a professional instructor. This video course gives you that
professional instructor. It allows you to watch the welding process up
close. You can’t get any closer! While watching the welding process,
the instructor is explaining what he is doing. I don’t believe you can
get this level of instruction in a classroom. And best of all, if you
miss something . . . just hit rewind and watch it again. This course
covers all the basic types of welding . . . Gas welding/cutting, arc,
MIG and TIG, but most importantly it covers gunsmith welding. This
course has made me a more confident and competent gunsmith. Well
worth the investment. Thanks.” Jeffery C. May, President /Gunsmith,

To be a 1911 Pistolsmith you must be able to troubleshoot these pistols and understand what creates those
mysterious malfunctions that drive shooters nuts and how to permanently repair them. Ever wonder why after you
have added that latest trick gadget, your .45 isn’t quite as reliable as it use to be? As originally designed, the 1911 is
unbelievably reliable. However, when you or a manufacturer change features, add parts or vary from the original
design in any way, this gun can provide you with some frustrating reliability problems.
To resolve these issues, Gene Shuey will take you through the entire troubleshooting process, using cutaways to
simulate and show you what specific types of jams and various malfunctions look like, what causes them, and how to
correct or avoid these problems. We have assembled an entire "How-to" Troubleshooting Encyclopedia for the 1911
auto pistol. This is laid out and presented in a logical problem/solution format that is easy to follow and allows you to
rapidly find the information you are looking for. Included:
•

Applicable to all makes, models and calibers, this course is an absolutely mandatory video resource for anyone who
owns a 1911 or who is a serious student of this pistol. You will also be able to “sit-in” and watch a class that Gene
Shuey presented to a group of students on how to do a 1911 Trigger Job!

You will be able to take the Glock to an
incredibly new level, and create a pistol that is
so desirable that everyone will be clamoring and
shoving money at you asking you to do the
same to their pistol.
Even if you have never disassembled a Glock before,
after watching and practicing the techniques shown in this
course, you will master the Glock pistol and be able to
repair and customize it. You will become a qualified
Glocksmith. Over 17 hours of instruction on DVD!
The total disassembly and reassembly of the Glock pistol can be intimidating.
Ken Brooks walks you through every step in the Complete Disassembly and
Reassembly (D/R) of the Glock down to the very last part in close-up detail.
Once you know the secrets, the pistol will seem to disassemble at your very
touch, in mere seconds. You will never fear taking it all the way down to
a bare frame.
Master Gunsmith Robert Dunlap then
uses a rare original factory cutaway pistol to reveal the intricate inner workings
of this revolutionary pistol design. This
course is applicable to all models of the
Glock, even the new compact models. In
addition to proper maintenance techniques and complete disassembly/reassembly you will also
learn how to make this great pistol even more reliable.
Next up noted authority and Glocksmith T.R. Graham takes you
into the gun piece by piece, teaching you the tips and tricks that
years of experience have shown work. In this course you'll see all
types of trigger modifications available by switching parts, using aftermarket parts, and even
by modifying the factory originals. Coverage of all trigger parts available, as well as how to
combine them for different shooters and applications, is shown along with a build-up of both a
combat and a target trigger. T.R. reviews many sights available for Glocks, detailing the
differences between competition and combat style sights. You'll see dozens of sighting options
explained and honestly evaluated along with the installation of several, including laser and
night sights.
T.R. will show you how to install an extended mag release and slide stop and make them work even
more effectively. He covers aftermarket recoil spring and guide rod combinations, while explaining
24

AGI
why and when to use them. After reviewing a myriad of different magazine and grip
accessories, he shows how to combine them to tailor the pistol to YOU. He even covers
aftermarket barrels and barrel fitting with great detail.
Want to convert your Glock to another caliber or enhance the accuracy? T.R. covers
step-by-step how to get the most accuracy out of your Glock, as well as showing you several
caliber conversions including a .22 cal conversion and even how to make your Glock into a
carbine using the kit from Mech Tech! Sights, barrels, triggers, magazines, accessories,
conversions, custom parts, and accurizing are all covered!
T.R. also provides you with an amazing array of tricks,
tips, and modifications that he has learned from working
on thousands of Glocks, including: trigger mods, frame changes, safeties, extractor,
and ejector mods. He'll give you honest opinions on barrels and porting systems and
show you how to fit them for the best accuracy. You'll learn what parts will give you
the best return in accuracy for dollars spent and what to avoid. T.R. even explains
the differences in the factory parts that are available, and which ones can be
interchanged between different model guns.
Master Gunsmith Gene Shuey then reveals the four areas that you
can greatly improve on this excellent pistol!
There is no doubt that the Glock pistol is a reliable workhorse for law
enforcement, military, and personal protection. However there are four areas
of the Glock pistol that anyone with the right training and just basic skills
can improve: The sights, the barrel (for accuracy and the ability to safely
shoot lead bullet reloads), the grip frame (better fit, grip, and reduced felt
recoil) and the trigger pull. To get the most out of your Glock you really
need to know how to address each of these areas and in this course Gene Shuey and AGI show you how step-by-step.
Master Pistolsmith Gene Shuey has been working on Glock pistols for many
years, studying, experimenting, and testing different approaches to enhancing
the gun. He creates what is called "functional art in firearms." His Glock pistols
are absolutely beautiful to look at, feel, and hold. And they work flawlessly!
If you're not familiar with Mr. Shuey, he is well known for building extremely
high-end custom 1911 pistols. Entire feature articles have been written about
his work in gun magazines around the world. In Japan they have used his
pistols as models to make exotic soft-air copies that sell for premium prices.
After receiving hundreds of requests, Gene turned all of his creative focus to Glock pistols. Over the years he has
refined his process for converting Glocks into the finest concealed carry and competition pistols available anywhere.
He is now willing to share with you everything he has learned from spending thousands of hours working on these
guns.
Mr. Shuey has developed a simple step-by-step system that will enable you to customize
your Glock the way YOU want it. Follow along as he shows you the numerous different sight
options currently available and helps you make your choice. He selects an aftermarket
"drop-in" barrel, installs it, and then demonstrates how to test for proper fit and polish the
chamber for reliable feeding. He shows you how to enhance the grip and increase the
adhesion of the grip so that it won't slip when you need it during rapid firing or when your
hands are sweaty, wet, or slippery. Gene will also show you how to install a thumb safety.
Furthermore, he teaches you how to greatly improve your trigger pull by installing a lighter
trigger connector, springs, and smoothing and tuning the parts. You will also learn how to select and install an
1-800-797-0867
AGI
25
approved recoil spring assembly to reduce felt recoil and improve reliability. Gene
covers how to tune the overall pistol to improve fit, feel, and function plus a whole
lot more.
This course is equal to sitting down with Master Pistolsmith Gene Shuey at his
bench for a week working side-by-side with him.
Take it to
the next level!
Learn how to modify your Glock into a custom carry
gun using the step-by-step, detailed instruction you
have come to expect from AGI. Following these methods you can build a truly
custom Glock that combines stunning looks and exceptional performance!
Mr. Shuey takes a Caspian slide and shows you how to machine in a sight track, as well as
bevel the side and front edges for a striking appearance and smooth, concealed carry. He
teaches you how to perform an advanced and comprehensive trigger job that speeds up
lock time with a Titanium firing pin, then shows you how to install the Cominoli "1911
style" thumb safety. You’ll also see him show and explain the pros and cons of an extensive
assortment of the slide stops and magazine releases available as both factory and
aftermarket parts.
Gene reveals how to re-contour the shape of your grip
and enhance the surface texture to create a grip that fits your hand like a glove. He even
shows you how to systematically make money building custom Glocks by creating a
re-useable, model specific, template to ensure a perfect job each and every time. Gene
shows you the many different sight options available
and explains the advantages and disadvantages of
each. He also demonstrates methods and tools used
to install sights without damaging your custom slide.
On top of all that, he covers finishing options such as
hard chrome, DLC, and bluing.
In addition we have included a recording of a one-time Live Classroom course by Gene
Shuey on how-to do a professional Glock Trigger Job fast and still get safe premium
results using existing parts. (This will save you and your customers thousands of dollars
over time). Watching this course is like being there in person.
The course comes with a complete set of professional class notes on
the Glock pistol, with close-ups and lists of sources. All the DVDs
in the Glocksmithing Course are indexed to help the user
quickly find the information they are looking for.
This course is simply a MUST HAVE COURSE for anyone who wants to build Custom Glocks.

Now go from
Practical to Tacti-cool!
To be sure which of the myriad of
accessories are best for your
purpose, you really need to understand what they do, how they work and whether or not
they will meet the desired result. Your instructor in this
segment is Sgt. Mark Foster. He has over 30 years of
Gunsmithing experience and is a 20 year veteran of a
California county Sheriff’s Department, where he is the
Chief Armorer and a Training Officer. During that time he
has built dozens of AR variants for use in different applications and maintained over 100 ARs
that are used daily by patrol deputies. He also is responsible for the specialized select-fire SWAT
Teams tactical M4s. He has seen what works and what doesn’t first hand. He has observed how
easy it is for “Operators” to spend thousands of
dollars on gadgets that in the end don’t perform
as expected and can even be dangerous. He will
help you will avoid those mistakes.
Mark shows and explains to you numerous examples of triggers, grips, optics,
lights, rails, barrels, stocks, muzzle brakes, compensators, flash-hiders, sights,
handguards, gas systems and more. For each category he outlines what works
well, tells you what to avoid and explains why. His daily field-experience
combined with his armorer experience working on fellow officers’ weapons,
gives him inside knowledge on the reliability and functionality of each of these
options.
After reviewing the many available accessories thoroughly, Mark will show you how to build a variety of “mission-oriented”
ARs and explains what components he chooses for each and why. He goes through the process of tailoring the AR for: CQB,
general hunting, SWAT, 3-gun, varmint hunting, home defense, and plinking, just to name a few. After studying this course you will be able to
design and build the ultimate ARs for yourself and your customers. In
addition to showing and demonstrating the tools, he demonstrates stepby-step how to change a barrel and install a free-floating handguard.
The result of achieving your AR-15/M4 Riflesmith Certificate is that
you will know how to tune existing guns for optimal performance and
build up any type of AR rifle from scratch. Also included are professional
and very comprehensive notes, online testing, and an AR-15/M4

Become a trained
Firearms Appraiser
Millions of firearms are sold, traded,
or inherited every year and many of these guns must be formally appraised for estate,
resale, and tax purposes. You can get paid for providing your “expert opinion of value”
when you become a trained Firearms Appraiser but, you must have the proper training to be able to
provide an expert opinion and keep yourself legal. Here are just a few of the many
opportunities available to a Firearms Appraiser:
You will learn from
these respected experts:
• The IRS requires that firearms that are a significant part of an estate be appraised for
tax purposes. The same goes for collections of guns being donated to a museum,
foundation, or non-profit as a tax deduction.
• In the case of bankruptcies, firearms are considered part of an individual’s net worth,
a certain amount of which, if properly documented, they get to keep.
• Individuals that need money for retirement or need to raise cash
have to know what their guns are worth so they can get a fair price.
In addition, surviving relatives will often want to sell a deceased person’s
firearms, but have no idea of their value.
We can help you achieve this expertise FAST! AGI has developed this special course
which will enable you to quickly become a Firearms Appraiser using knowledge
provided from a panel of experts with well over 400 years of combined experience in
collecting, appraising and selling firearms. You will instantly benefit from all of their
experience, saving you years of trial, error and frustration. The business lessons they share
during these interviews are alone worth the entire investment in this course. This complete
course even covers how to market your services, so that
estates, foundations and attorneys can find and hire you.

Learn design, function and how
to completely disassemble,
maintain, repair, and reassemble
your guns, fast and easily with
total confidence using these
DVD manuals from AGI!
60
titles to
choose from!
Master Gunsmith Bob Dunlap explains design and function using cutaway firearms,
giving you exclusive close up details of the internal workings that you just aren't going
to be able to see otherwise.
We believe you can't fix it unless you truly understand HOW the firearm is intended to work. These really are owners' and
technical manuals on DVD. What is Covered in an Armorer’s Course? We start with a brief history of each particular firearm
and in most cases use an exclusive factory cutaway to explain in detail the design of the feeding and locking mechanisms, the
trigger system, proper ejection, and every other function of that specific model of firearm with views of the intricate internal
workings not normally visible. After you have a complete understanding of the design and function we show, step-by-step,
complete disassembly and reassembly, then teach you basic troubleshooting and repairs at an Armorer's level. And AGI keeps
you out of trouble by telling you what parts you should never remove! AND . . . all AGI Armorer's Course DVDs include a FREE
printable schematic! Only $39.95 each plus s/h.

AGI Master Gunsmith Gene Shuey will show you each step, from removing old parts, to installing and headspacing a new barrel. In
this epic production you will see a solid old military 98 transformed into a classic hunting rifle. We start with two identical guns and
then go through every single conversion step in detail. Actions, triggers, barrels, stocks, mounts, slings, sights and custom accessories
are covered in extensive detail. Over seven (7) hours of detailed information. Over two years in development and production.
First we provide you with a thorough discussion and identification of Mauser Actions.

How-to Rebarrel & Blueprint Military Bolt Action Rifles
This course is designed to teach you how to super tune all the popular military bolt actions including:
Mausers, Enfields, Springfields and Japanese Arisakas. AGI’s Ken Brooks tells you which models are
safe to build-up and which ones aren’t, including which work best with magnum cartridges. This course
focuses on tuning, strengthening, and accurizing the action for both reliability and function. Ken not only
shows you HOW to perform each procedure, he also explains WHEN and WHY to do them. He shows
you how to: weld up the firing pin hole, reshape the firing pin, machine the bolt face and open it for
magnums, super-tune the extractor and make it “snap-over” for reliability, lap the lugs, extend the mag
box for longer cartridges, install recoil shoulders in the magazine box, open the rails to feed magnum
cartridges, fit the magazine for reliable feeding, and modify the front guard for bedding. Learn to flare
the cocking piece runway, fit the bolt stop and ejector, do a trigger job, re-barrel and headspace. Dozens
of custom modifications are shown; some for reliability, others for accuracy, and many for personal taste.
We show you how to perform procedures without expensive tooling and which tools are a “must have.”
You CAN build an accurate, reliable, totally awesome, customized, military bolt-action rifle! 5 hrs.

I'm an AGI student and a Silver GCA member. I was asked by a friend if I could fix the stock of his 870 shotgun. I read about the AGI
course on stock refinishing with Gene Shuey. I sent for the course, followed the detailed step-by-step instructions and the stock looked
like new. No, it looked like a custom job of woodworking. I am so happy with this finished stock. The professional instruction is top notch.
So, from Medford, Oregon this is R.G. Waterbury thanking all of you at AGI for this amazing gift of knowledge.

He says you can too!
“ . . . I have been a life long subscriber to Rifle
Magazine and have lusted after the beautiful
firearms that have been portrayed in their “Custom Corner.” I decided that I
would attempt to build my own custom rifle. So I began to look around for a resource where I
could learn how to do just that. Going to one of the gunsmithing schools was out of
the question considering that I wanted to do this as a hobby, not as a profession. I
read/heard about your company and decided to take a chance. I ordered the “Building
the Custom Mauser.” I purchased a Persian 98/29 Mauser rifle and began work.
I wanted to tell you that I have watched that series over ten times all the way through.
Mr. Shuey is a disciplined instructor, not given to over statement. For the beginner, these
videos are so helpful as they walk one through the entire process of building a custom
rifle. Then I purchased the Rust /Nitre Bluing. I have just completed all of the metal
work (bottom metal, action, bolt and barrel) and I gotta tell you, it is beautiful! I could
never have afforded to purchase a custom rifle of this quality. Yet, with these tapes, I have
been able to produce beautiful work. This is not a testimony to my own efforts. Rather,
this is praise for the ability of these videos to provide instruction in such a way, that a
beginner like me can turn out decent work. In the hands of a patient and diligent person,
these videos bring the possibility of the custom rifle into the reach of people like me. For
that I wish to thank you and your organization for providing me with this service. I got
more than I bargained for from your videos!
Sincerely yours, Pastor Jim Pimentel

Before you go out and spend
hundreds, or possibly thousands of dollars on a new custom
rifle, first squeeze all the potential performance out of the
rifles that you already own! In this course Darrell Holland
will show you how to cut your group sizes in half or more by
improving the rifles function using existing parts and by
employing the tricks of custom gun makers that you can do
yourself.
Save Big Bucks by “Saving” your existing barrel by
recrowning, setting back and re-throating the chamber. When
to do cryo work and stress relieving of the barrel and when to
avoid it is explained. Also, how to add a heavy pinned recoil
lug, blueprinting the action and lapping the lugs, bedding for
100% contact and all the details of perfect stock fit.
Plus - trick aftermarket parts that really work, proper barrel
break-in techniques, fitting a special firing pin, trigger, bolt
stop and why. Everything that you need to know to tune up
your factory rifle is covered in this course. Although most
applicable to the Remington 700 and Winchester Model 70
rifles, which are covered in detail, many of the techniques can
be applied to numerous other models as well.

Build a semi-auto
AKS from a parts kit!
We Did All The Work For You! From research and
experimenting with various construction techniques, to creating
tooling and documenting everything with drawings, we took the
long way around in order to find the BEST and EASIEST
method for building a Semi-Auto AK from a parts kit. Now,
because of our thorough research and painstaking experiments,
YOU can build an AK from a kit with ease and guaranteed
success. We have
eliminated all the
guesswork and shown you
a foolproof method for
building up a Semi-Auto AK from a completed receiver or from a receiver flat.
Endless Maze - You’ll be lost without this course You won’t believe how many different
ways there are to skin this cat! It seemed as though the variations of how you could build
an AK from a kit were ENDLESS. Several gunsmiths and engineers from AGI poured over
this process and tried various methods for forming and assembling receivers before we realized that in order to eliminate confusion and lower risk of failure, we needed to come up
with ONE standardized procedure that would work for the experienced perfectionist as well
as for the first-time, novice builder. After months of experimentation we had the answer.
Parts Identification • Construction Techniques • Receiver Selection
Barrel Installation • Fitting a Trunnion • How-to Rivet • Bending Flats • Tooling Blueprints • Parts Selection
If you follow the procedures we show you and use the tooling we give you prints for, you simply can’t miss. Prints are
included on the DVDs for all the tooling you need whether you are starting from a receiver flat or with a pre-formed receiver.
By building the AGI tooling you simplify the building process and increase your chances of success. Every step in the process
is covered in detail and when we are done building our AK, we take you through the proper safety checks and are off to the
range to test fire. You’ll be impressed at how well the gun operates.

Change YOUR Ruger 10/22 into the Coolest
Looking and Most Accurate Rifle Around!
GO FROM THIS . . .
TO THIS!
Ruger® has sold literally millions
of these guns. The 10/22® is a good
looking firearm and can be used for many applications. It is a great
"plinking" rifle as well as a target rifle and it is ideal for teaching someone to
shoot without developing bad habits. It is a good "ranch gun" and it can also
be used for hunting smaller creatures for the stewpot.
One of the best things about the 10/22® is that it can be customized to your heart's content. There are so many
aftermarket parts and products manufactured for this gun, it can make your head spin. The 10/22® shoots and looks
great right out of the box, but with so many options available to the shooter, many folks own a few as they are still
very affordable after all of these years.
With so many choices available to customize the 10/22®, AGI Instructor/Technical Services Manager, Jack Landis
decided to create a course based around customizing this fine little gun! This course is fun and will show you many
of the possibilities that are available to you and your firearm! And who better to teach us the fun side of building
guns than Jack, as he is genuine, enthusiastic and “no holds barred” in his opinions!
The Ruger® 10/22® is a firearm that can be taken apart with basic tools, so customizing will not cost you an arm and
a leg before you even begin a project. The other nice thing is that it is a good gun to understand how the mechanics
of the gun works. Covered in this course are the many options for customizing and
building the Ruger® 10/22®. First we get to see many finished configurations of the gun,
just to get the creative juices flowing. After that, we methodically move on to the various
parts of the firearm that can be customized. We take a look at the heart of the gun, the
receiver (or action). There are so many choices and variations to see in the way of
actions. When you decide what type of receiver you want to start with, the style or
configuration of the design begins to take shape.
You will be making choices to build a tactical, hunting or target gun. Jack explains the
attributes of various barrels, stocks, trigger housings, scopes, magazines, as well as
individual parts that will enable you to make informed decisions about the type of gun
that you want to build before you even spend any money. The course will allow you to
create a budget and blueprint your plans so you do not go overboard or end up with a
bunch of stuff that you don't really need to build your dream gun.

Barrel selection
Jack also spends some time at the mill and lathe showing us how to include some
practical modifications, like boring/drilling/tapping rear cleanout holes in the receiver,
squaring up the bolt face/adjusting headspace and even how to do a trigger job.
