me and dad are setting up a personal gunsmithing shop?
okay me and my dad are setting up a gun smith shop im wondering what tools ill need were not professionals we dont need a lathe or that kinda stuff. we just wanna be able to drill and tap for scopes, cut down and recrown barrels, bend bolt handles, refensish stocks, cold blue, dura coat, and reload ammunition so where wanting to know what tools well need to drill and tap, recrown barrels and bend bolt handles, give me a link to the tools online we know where ganna need a grinder a drill press and alot more so please just start naming some tools a HOBBY gunsmith needs.
where just doing it for our selfs no one besides me and my dad firearms will be worked on and yes there are ways to re crown barrels without a lathe
The first thing you need is a set of gunsmiths screwdrivers
More guns lose value by having buggered screws than just about anything else
You will also need a set of brass punches
For the other stuff you are going to need a good drill press
Dremel tool
Air compressor for the Duracoat, you can use it with cans of air but using a real airbrush makes a huge difference
Inexpensive sandblast gun
A cabinet would be nice and save you money in the long run but is not absolutely necessary unless you do a lot of bead blasting
You’re gonna need a torch for bending metal things MAPP might do it but it will take a lot longer
And of course a good tap and die set
Barrel cutting and recrowning is above my paygrade so I have no recommendations there
Brownells will have every thing you need
