Gunsmithing for a living is going involve a lot more than working on AR15's and M9's so is this really going to "prepare" you for your desired career?

Sorry Arch, but this is laughable. <--my opinion. sorry

Ask anyone who has worked in a miltary armory which is the most common weapon they work on, and the M4/16 will be the answer. However, there are about 50 models in the average armory. They range from the M9 to the 50 Cal sniper and machine gun/M2 to the latest XM-25.

I think you misunderstood my point. I was saying that in the military you're going to be working predominately on the M16 family of weapons.

In the civilian world you're not.

When I was working in a gun shop 90% of our "projects" were related to what the owner called "Fudd Guns" (hunting weapons) and predominately gas operated self loading shotguns.

My point in a nut shell:

Military = Mostly M16
Civilian = Everything Else
