I've decided to take an early retirement in a few years and am planning to hang a shingle up for part-time gunsmithing, and other small work that comes around. I shoot USPSA matches so most gun work is 1911 style pistols and AR-15 rifles. No hunting rifles, bench rest, or BMGs.
I need accurate, yet decent sized machines, that will never take a .1" DOC (lathe) or bury a 3/4" end mill in steel on a mill. NO production work on these machines.
So I'm thinking of PM's new 935VS knee mill and a 1340GT with the variable speed option, and am interested in hearing from people who own these machines. Interested in capability, quality, accuracy, etc. Or anything else about these machines.
Thanks,
Bill
