[you needed a machine shop to make a handgun (and we're excluding "zip guns" here). ]
That's simply untrue - witness "Chinese milling machines" (hand files), long used by remote gunmakers in the various 'Stan's ( Paki, Afghani, etc) to manufacture copies of just about anything someone wanted; not to mention many early American frontier gunmakers of flintlock riflles, etc.
What's needed is material, knowledge & determination - and (of course) time, especially when/where time doesn't = $$$.
