Rondog raises a very good point. If you're looking to get into machining as a hobby which covers more than just gunsmithing or you plan on doing a LOT of gunsmith machining then great. But be warned that the machine is only the thin edge of the wedge. Your pocket book will eventually be pried open to dump out about as much again as the cost of the lathe for tooling that you'll need which can be related to the lathe directly or to support hand tools to go with the lathe working.
