Today in Gunsmithing school Grady Simpson decided to try his hand at meteorology. Colorado’s forecast calls for more lightning and thunder.

What better way to celebrate #WoodstockWednesday than showcasing Francisco Delgadillo’s project rifle. This Remington 700 should shoot awfully well especially with the extra freedom device attached.

Had staff gunsmith Josh Roy and student @an_american_rifleman go out to Vegas for the May @rifledynamics build class. Pretty slick little class they throw together.

Nothing beats a good project rifle build. Adrian Twist blues the barreled action then laid stencils over the top and cerakoted this bad mama jama.

Couldn’t be happier for @kurt_the_gunsmith and his gracious mustache being in the cover of @brownellsinc 74th Big Book Catalog. Check out his alumni page at https://schooloftrades.edu/alumni/ to see what he has to say about Colorado School of Trades. Always awesome to see the birds leave the nest and spread their wings.

Happy Earth Day y’all! We would like to celebrate some of the great things that our world provides us. Like Potassium, Nitrogen, and Oxygen. Specifically in a compound of 1 potassium, 1 nitrogen and 3 oxygen molecules. A great fertilizer as well as other things.

Pop Quiz! What would have caused this baffle strike on the muzzle break that came across @spartan.precision.gunsmithing bench to get fixed. Wrong or right answers. We’ll let you decide 😏
On Fridays while majority of students aren’t in the building the staff here at CST works on some professional development. Here we can see PJ Shaw cleaning a first year production Winchester 1892, Jordan Brentlinger working on his Blunderbuss, Josh Roy inletting a stock for a Browning Citori Lightning, and Trevor Teter doing Trevor Teter things.

Chuck Agajanian made some sick walnut grips for this Manurhhin PPK/S. The wood grips are finished with TimberLuxe as well as the slide and frame being reblued. “It’s Alright” direct quote from Quentin Hanson on Chuck’s work.

The Fresh Prince is at it again with this 1911. He “Brass Brazed” the slide, applied the patterned stencils, sprayed black and then clear over the top. This gun looks slick!

Got to put the lathe to work yesterday and fit and chambered this 6.5 creedmoor I have slowly been gathering parts for over the last year. I think it’s going to be a shooter! The two groups that are in this photo represent rounds 8-14 through this barrel and one was done by me and the other by my father.
I really enjoyed getting to cerakote the chassis in Multicam Black with the help of a good friend at school, I still need to paint the barrel so it all matches.

Had an absolute blast giving a handgun class this last weekend! Keep up that dryfire! If you do even 10 minutes of good dry fire daily, your skills will improve dramatically. Set up a camera and watch for inconsistencies in your technique, and fix them.
Also thank you max_flats and whatfunk6 for the camera support!
And another thank you to my additional RSOs that made an appearance!
More on the way.

SIG P938 came in after being in a floor safe that flooded over the years. Was loaded and one in the pipe. Barrel and hammer rusted in place. It was fun taking apart with the threat of live round going off. All springs are shot and now I get to clean and refinish if required. #coloradoschooloftrades #stimpertfirearms #cerakotesouthwest #collectorsgunexchange #freedomweapons #elpasoguns
This is definitely one of the coolest shotguns I have ever seen, and I was very excited to get to work on it. An old (I think 1930s era based on the serial number, but it was hard to find solid information about it) Darne shotgun that has an incredibly unique action with phenomenal engraving. It had seen some better days and needed a rust blue to bring back it’s beauty. I was very happy with the result!

Started from the bottom and now we are here.. first attempt at a multicam cerakote job, and I think it came out well.

This was a Uberti 1873 that I recently got to refinish. Someone had tried to refinish it and ended up causing a lot of damage. What is not captured very well are the side plates that had been bent, I was able to successfully bend them back and refit them. The bore also had quite a bit of damage, while a lot of it was irreparable, I was able to stop the corrosion that was happening. It was a great project that I was very grateful to take on. #gunsmith #gunsmithing #uberti #coloradoschooloftrades #leveraction #winchester1873
