At MGS, we proudly offer accredited, quality gunsmithing programs to military members, veterans, and their families. Our Advanced Gunsmithing programs are particularly attractive to military servicemen and women for several reasons: they complement the benefits you’ve earned, cater to your interest in firearms, and offer flexible scheduling, allowing you to study on your own terms, whenever and wherever life takes you.

The Post-9/11 GI Bill® offers educational financial support for veterans with at least 90 days of aggregate service on or after September 11, 2001, or that have been discharged with a service-connected disability after 30 days. If you have received an honorable discharge, you are eligible.

The MGIB program provides up to 36 months of education benefits for veterans. Generally, benefits are payable for 10 years following your release from active duty. This program is also commonly known as Chapter 30.

"…The Online Student Center and dashboard are simple, intuitive, and very convenient. I have completed many courses over the years—ranging from firearms instruction and appraising to insurance and other gunsmithing programs—and this course stands out as having some of the best educational material I’ve encountered. The combination of video instruction and hardcopy materials worked extremely well. The projects were challenging, practical, and worthwhile…Overall, the training was excellent and exceeded my expectations. I appreciate the depth, structure, and professionalism of the program. Thank you again for a great educational experience."
""I have been interested in firearms since entering the U. S. Army and that was 27 years ago. At present I enjoy accurizing especially the 1911, AR15 and M14. Though not employed as a gunsmith, I enrolled in MGS to gain more knowledge and skill. As you taught and I learned this is ongoing. Your instruction lessons showed me different ways to approach firearm problems. Your projects enlightened me to different methods to approach and complete a task to success(i.e. step by step). I would definitely recommend MGS to anyone wanting to improve their skills."
