Gunsmith in 1800's were actually called Black Smiths.Most blacksmith's shops were small and they were quite poorly, with little new iron

to make any product at all. The main tools were a forge and bellows, an

anvil, hammers, water buckets,and a small selection of files and tongs.

the reason why was because the every day Black Smith were trying to find a place in the america to settle down and to build a shop.

These smith's created every day tools, nails, horse shoes,and about anything using metal.

and sometimes they find ways to gain a apprentice to help them out on several tasks.
