That is not what I would call a gunsmith. I can do it a lot faster than that, even screwing it up, undoing it, and redoing it. And I don’t consider myself an armorer, much less a gunsmith, closer to a three-thumbed Bubba. Apex builds great kits *and* has great how to videos. Watch ‘til you understand, then take your time with no fear. 9mmepiphany is 100% on this.
