Plan your next Gunsmith Simulator session
Our guide helps you master each stage of Gunsmith Simulator, from order intake to final range testing. By breaking down the workflow into clear steps, you can streamline your workshop, avoid common pitfalls, and deliver high‑quality firearms that satisfy even the most demanding clients.
01 / THE GUIDE
Order Review
Spend a few minutes reading the full order description before gathering parts. Note any special requests for accessories or finishes, which will guide your material choices and prevent rework later.
- Check the order details carefully to prioritize parts that need replacement.
- Take note of any special client requests for accessories early.
02 / THE GUIDE
Tool Selection
Compare the lathe and CNC machine capabilities for the required part. Use the lathe for simple wooden components and the CNC for precise metal pieces, ensuring each part meets tolerance standards.
- Experiment with both lathe and CNC for different material types.
- Save your designs to reuse for similar orders.
03 / THE GUIDE
Rust Removal Techniques
Test both manual scrubbing and chemical oxidation treatments on a small rusted area. Observe which method clears the surface faster without damaging underlying metal, then apply the preferred technique to the whole weapon.
- Use chemical treatments for stubborn rust before manual cleaning.
- Apply protective layers after painting for durability.
04 / THE GUIDE
Accessory Integration
Install a sample optic or laser on a test gun to verify fit and function. Adjust mounting points as needed before committing the accessory to the client’s final build.
- Match accessories to the weapon’s intended use for better performance.
- Document each accessory configuration for future reference.
05 / THE GUIDE
Range Performance
After assembly, fire the weapon at static targets to establish baseline accuracy, then move to moving‑target drills. Record scores to gauge whether any final tweaks are required before delivery.
- Start with static targets to gauge baseline accuracy.
- Progress to moving targets for reaction‑speed improvement.
