Armorer
Course Description:
The Armorer Course is a one-day foundational gunsmithing program focused primarily on the Glock pistol platform and AR15-type rifles.
Contents:
The course begins with essential theory covering firearm design principles, functional components, and safe handling procedures prior to disassembly. In the first section, participants fully disassemble a Glock pistol down to its individual components. The training covers proper cleaning and lubrication procedures, inspection of parts, replacement of commonly changed components, basic trigger system work, and guidance on sight installation and initial zeroing. Participants reassemble the pistol with full understanding of its mechanical function and internal operation. The second section provides armorer-level insights and technical information regarding additional firearm platforms such as AK-pattern rifles, SA58, CZ P-10, CZ Scorpion EVO, CZ BREN, as well as pump-action and semi-automatic shotguns. The third section focuses on AR15-type rifles. Participants learn the differences between direct impingement and piston-operated systems, complete rifle disassembly for detailed maintenance, inspection for wear and operational faults, proper cleaning and preservation techniques, and user-level component replacement. The course also demonstrates more advanced repairs and part replacements requiring specialized tools, including common pitfalls that may lead to irreversible damage if performed incorrectly. Participants may, by prior agreement with the instructor, replace selected AR15 components during the course (e.g., trigger assemblies, end plates, or other user-serviceable parts). The course also covers mounting procedures for iron sights and optical systems, basic zeroing principles, and concludes with instruction on suppressor use, maintenance, and care.
