Found out about "smith tactical." It's their on-line gunsmithing course, where you can learn to make tactical rifles shoot 1800 yards in just weeks. . .

I read somewhere that they give credit for 'life experience'. I already have a rifle that will shoot 1800 yards so maybe they'll give me the certificate if I give them the money an just skip all that bothersome study. BTW, my rifle won't hit a barn sized target at 1800 yards but it will shoot that far. Do you think that will prevent me from getting my tactical gunsmith certification?

I did a little research on this one.

Phoenix State University (PSU) is owned by Tom Halstead, 7760 e SR 69, suite c5-390, Prescott Valley, AZ 86314, Phone 928-830-8467.

Halstead operates several companies selling "accredited" courses including the Pastoral Church of America. All of their courses are "accredited" by Association of American Trade and Vocational Schools.

Want to guess who owns the "Association of American Trade and Vocational Schools"? Bingo! We have a winner! Tom Halstead.

Want to guess the only schools that are "accredited" by the "Association of American Trade and Vocational Schools"?

One BS scam organization accrediting another.

The world is too full of scumbags, con-men and thieves.

I wrote to the Arizona Attorney General about this but they really don't seem too interested in doing anything about it.
