Gentlemen,

There are more than 2,700 rare and fascinating firearms are available for viewing here . Begin by clicking on Treasure Collection or Featured Guns to discover some of the most wonderful guns in the museum. For a gallery-by-gallery, case-by-case tour, select Galleries from the Museum tab .

I bet you will easily spend hours looking at and reading about these beauties .

Thanks for posting the link on our National Firearms Museum!

We have recently received some spectacular guns with Indian history that I thought might be of special interest to the members of this forum. These were part of the famous Robert E. Petersen collection:

Rp, Thanks for sharing the link.

Jim, Welcome to IFG. You have the best job in the world. :)

Jeff Cooper advocated four basic rules of gun safety:
1) All guns are always loaded. Even if they are not, treat them as if they are.
2) Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
3) Keep your finger off the trigger till your sights are on the target.
4) Identify your target, and what is behind it.
