AR-15/M-16 Armorer's Course
The AR-15 Armorers course presented by Defensive Edge is only about two weeks away (April 10 and 11, 2010). Greg Sully Sullivan of Defensive Edge will be the instructor. The cost is $350. The course is two full days.
Here is a brief overview of what is covered during this hands on course:
History of the Weapon
Cycles of Function
General Disassembly & Assembly
Identification of Common Problems and Parts
Nomenclature
Identification of Group Components
Semi, Burst, and Full Auto Parts and Conversions
Complete Armoring Disassembly / Assembly
Barrel Replacement
Cleaning and Maintenance
Sight and Distance Considerations
Ballistic Issues
Barrel Twist, Length, and Choices
Gas System
Parts Interchangeability, including Brands
Headspace
Firing Pin Protrusion
Trigger Jobs
Chamber Inspection and Polishing
Accessories and Customizing
Tool Options and Selection
Iron Sights (A1/A2/A3) Disassembly/Reassembly
Optics
SOP/MOD Accessories and Additions
All tools, manuals, and anything else that is necessary is supplied. Defensive Edge will provide rifles with prior arrangements so we know how many to bring. We prefer that students bring their own weapon systems to get familiar with their own configuration and modifications, plus this allows the time for a good thorough cleaning and inspection, plus we can replace and repair any parts necessary. This is a very intensive course that we cover in 2-days, so be prepared to get a lot of hands on knowledge.
All that successfully complete this course will receive Armorer's Certification, and will also have an opportunity to purchase a SLR15 rifle at a special Armorer's rate.
Substantive questions can be addressed to Greg Sullivan at Defensive Edge, sully@slr15.com. Phone: (763) 712-0123. The web site also has course information: www.slr15.com.
This course will be held at the Days Inn of Pittsburgh, 1150 Banksville Road, Pgh. PA. 15216. The phone number there is (412) 531-8900.
Please note there is a restaurant on site, a family restaurant a five minute walk away, and fast food outlets nearby.
