The Pennsylvania Gunsmith School strives to promote confidence, awareness, appreciation, and a sense of pride and accomplishment in each student as they complete their training to become Master Gunsmiths.

We Are Innovative

At PGS, learn to “Think like a Gunsmith” and use your skills to forge your ideas into functional firearms. You will create a portfolio of custom-crafted firearms and tooling to build your brand and share with future employers.

From Our Students

  • I love going to school here. The curriculum is quick paced, and challenging. The instructors are wonderful, and helpful. They don’t hold your hand. They lead and engage you to find answers. Lots of great knowledge, and opportunity.

    James H.

    The education and experience I’m getting is top notch. The financial aid department is extremely helpful. This is the best Gunsmithing/Armorers school on the east coast.
