Need help finding gunsmithing schools or courses in Indiana

[Duron219]

Does anyone know of any? I'm really interested in doing this and I would like to hear people's personal experiences and knowledge of different schools and programs.

There is the Pennsylvania Gunsmithing school. (www.pagunsmith.edu) and one at Lassen Community College in Susanville Ca. Those are the only two that I have any experience with. Im sure there are others though.

Edit.. Sorry missed the part about "In Indiana". Cant help you on that.

I am currently attending Wabash Valley College in Mt. Carmel, Illinois for Gunsmithing. They're just across the wabash river from Indiana and offer tuition discounts for certain Indiana counties and will give the same discount if you get a place in Mt. Carmel. It's a 1 or 2 year program, 1 year being a certificate, and 2 being an associates degree. The program covers most of what you would need to know to get started. You build (and keep) 3 firearms. A 1911, an AR, and a bolt action rifle. The 1911 and AR builds are standard, and you get to choose your bolt action build.

Not to be rude,but how much is the course?

 

[Hank93]

It's not too bad. It's 34 credit hours for the certificate (the 1 year program), and 63 credit hours for the associates degree. They have a special tuition rate for certain Indiana counties. These links should give you a good idea of the cost.
