Lassen Community College Gunsmithing program
I'd meant to mention this after my attendance at the last Big Reno Gun Show. A friend of mine on a mailing list I run, exi-liberty, mentioned that he's considering studying the art of the gunsmith; at that gunshow, I picked up a catalog for Lassen Community College, home of the famed NRA-affiliated Gunsmithing program:
We are the only Two Year Degree program fully accredited west of the Rocky Mountains. Lassen Community College is fully approved for VA and Rehabilitation students. We offer a two year A.S. Degree program as well as many different certificates with the additional opportunity for students to take a third year post graduate program to receive a Journeyman Gunsmith certificate.
The program is located on the college's campus in Susanville, California, about an hour's drive from Reno, Nevada. It's worth noting for Nevada residents that the college has a "good neighbor" tuition program specifically to attract them across the border to campus.
The college's gunsmithing program is unmatched in quality and scope, and features courses specifically tailored for the working professional: you can take each course in one week, starting Monday and finishing Friday. Neat deal.
