modern Designer What sort of educational background and/or degrees do designers of modern firearms usually have?
Also, what sort of tools do they use to create the designs? I am into dabbling in engineering and designing machines, guns being one of many interests I have. And how does one go about calling attention to the design from possible investors/buyers/builders?
Well..
The basis is a degree in mechanical engineering. You also need to be a student of firearm design along with mechanical design. You need to develop your drafting skills. It helps to know the two most common software packages used for this type of drafting. Those packages are AutoCad and Solid Works. In especial, learn how to do the 3D solids so that you can assemble your designs in the computer. It also helps to know the practical side of the mechanical world. To that end, work in a machine shop for a period of time.

Here's a rough edit. Still needs a fair bit of refinement.
"Simplicity is a such a bore! Sometimes the real fun is in bad taste!" This was the provocation, in the best tradition of British eccentricity, of the designer John Galliano. Born in 1960, in Gibraltar, to a Spanish family who learned the art and technique of tailoring in London at Central Saint Martin's School, he graduated in 1984, showing great talent and maturity.
His graduation collection was inspired by the French revolution and entitled "Les Incroyables", purchased by Joan Burstein of Brown, catapulting him onto the fashion scene.
Galliano introduced his models to Paris, where he moved in 1992. After earning the respect of the press and the French with his personal collections, he was named successor of Hubert Givenchy thanks to the emperor of luxury goods Bernard Arnault. John Galliano developed his style that became stronger and his inspiration more and more eclectic.
At the beginning of the '97s he became creative manager for Christian Dior and presented his first collection to the fashion show of Haute couture. After being confirmed as creative manager for Christian Dior, Galliano launched a line, that was known for its spectacular extravagance. Despite the bad reports from the public and the competing houses of fashion, the arrival of Galliano in the Maison Dior had completely revitalized style; introducing extremely theatrical collections.
The English designer decided, afterwards, to launch his own line, drawing constant inspiration from his origins; ceremonies and a culture dipped in sun and colour, the tradition of Latin elegance had become his signature and the eclecticism his trademark. Gypsy of luxury, one of the main exponents of the rebirth of the Brit-chic, great supporter of the asymmetrical cut and the tall Italian theatrical fashion of the fifties, Galliano began to give importance to his personal style, that had already exploded in all it’s theatricality and spontaneity of his first collection.
It was not only his dresses that created a fuss, but also the presentations, more and more similar to a theatre scene and not that of a background. “Fashion does not have to be sophisticated, taken too seriously, but it must be lived and felt”. Galliano's dresses are created for a muse, who spread the definition of beauty. “A woman in charge of her own destiny.” The presentation’s theme is femininity and romanticism, going beyond the limits of the creation. It is a constant search for new creative solutions.
John Galliano surprised everyone with the Summer / Winter 2010 collection where he brought in a scene with a fun-fair, from the '30s and '40s, emphasizing once more his romantic spirit was full of theatrical irony expressed, this time, by adherent tops and splendid suits. The cloths were animated, the colours vibrant, the theatricality of the paraded allowed the dresses to become absolute protagonists in perfect scenery.
Inspiration from the visionary poem Kubla Kahn by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, inspired the Autumn / Winter 2010 fashion show. Famous like one of the most mysterious poetries of the English literature, this composition supplied the designer a fantastic and at the same time modern setting for its parade.
"In Xanadu did Kubla Khan A stately pleasure-dome decree"
John Galliano planned the whole collection according to these verses, animated with multicolour hats decorated with plumes that reminded us of exotic and far countries. The atmosphere was rich, luxurious and regal and the models seemed to be characters from a magnificent theatrical work. The fashion blends with the theatre and results in an artistic value that goes beyond the suit itself, touching every unthreaded detail of the whole fashion show.
