2 Beers,
I've looked into the Sally Struthers "Learn at home in your spare time" courses. Frankly you'd be better off spending ~$100 on books off Amazon, and the other $600-$700 on a bunch of "project guns."
If you're really interested in this, then check out the Master Gunsmithing Program from the American Gunsmithing Institute. They basically send you a whole machine shop in the mail (lathe, drill press, bench grinder, hand grinder, hand tools) plus DVD instruction in machining, welding, and an exhaustive course on gunsmithing.
It's not cheap, not at all. But other than spending 18 months at the Pennsylvania Gunsmith School it's a decent option.
They also offer step down programs, without the machine tools, for less money.
