Picking up gunsmithing as a hobby

77% Normal
13 Comments

Just thinking about doing some designing and modifications to my own firearms/ making new types. Of course I’m not going to sell them, it’s merely just another peice of technology that can be reformed. Of course anything that is illegal is never going to see civilization. But it would be nice to see if any of my theories on increasing curtain attributes or conversions would be both possible and satisfying.

Got all the safety tips in mind, not going to blow my damn head or finger off with these.

    It feels like you are asking our permission.

    I'll think about it.

            Anvils are heavy and hard to come by. When you 3D print an anvil it isn't very effective either, since it's made of plastic.

    If there’s one thing I’ve learned from rdr2 it’s that guns are important

      Not a lot of metal fabrication skills but I do have the ability to disassemble and then reassemble the parts back together in working order, I just mean to modify a few features. Wether they be a functional improvement or visual.

          Gunsmithing includes modifying, weapon engineering refers to building new types of firearms.
          gunsmithing jobs can be as easy as engraving a pistol grip, or as complex as upgrading/ fixing fine parts inside the firearm.
