Virginia Gun Owners Forum - VGOF

After scoring a like-new work bench from one of our offices, I decided to setup a small workspace at home for gun related projects and stuff. I had to cut down the 1-3/4" thick butcher block top from 72" to 65" to fit in the space, which meant that I couldn't use the metal top shelf. I'm pretty happy with it so far.

Now I need to learn me some gunsmithin' skills. I already have my diploma

Congrats. That sure looks like a steady bench.

Nice setup!

rule 1 of gunsmithing: If at first you don't succeed, use a bigger hammer! No wait a minute that is farm equipment repair, the two are so closely related...

So, Jay...is that a reloading bench or someplace you plan to play with them model mack trucks...

It will probably be doing double duty for now

It's very true, it was demonstrated in front of me this evening. Of course, a torch was also involved...

Look's good Jay,
The first rule in gunsmithing that I learned at the Smith & Wesson school was that you must keep one foot on the floor at all time's if you have to beat on something with a piece of babet lead. It is used for many diffrent types of adjustment's on many types of weapons.

I disagree I think the first rule of gunsmithing is to let someone else shoot it first!

One a serious note looks like a nice work bench. Did someone say AR build?
